Business Outlook

Pros

Mellow atmosphere. Low noise. Most people are nice.

Cons

Micromanagement. No phones on the floor, if they see you using it warning then write up. No headphones on the floor. No food or drinks on the floor, including water. Disorganized management. Managers will walk around watching you every 10 mins or so. 1st shift vs 2nd shift sabotage. Bathroom breaks are strictly counted and watched, management wants you to only take them during break time. Start and end times are strictly watched okay if you punch in early for work (7mins) not.okay if you punch out 1min early. No room for advancement. Hiring like crazy, people are dismissed for challenging management like asking why any of the cons on the list are necessary. They are splitting the business to make a secondary independent company.

Pros

The product line is good, competitive pay.

Cons

Leadership is trash! A ton of conflicting guidelines/policies and managers who can hardly manage - zero leadership qualities. They promote friends and those who think alike, They encourage independent thinking but when you do you're castigated for it. Not a great place to work. And it's even worse after Baxter bought Hillrom, lots of layoffs without explanation.
