Boston Scientific R&D Engineering reviews

Recognition is hap-hazard. Regulations are exacerbated by company's interpretations of them, making work / progress slow. Management has focused too much on iterating and been slow to deliver new things (i.e. a "me-too" company). The healthy sense of urgency often makes it feel really busy. But, honestly, I've rarely worked over 50 hours/wk, and even then, I probably could have gotten by just fine with less.

The lack of communication from Senior Management was the largest downside. Their inability to give straight answers to questions gave the impression that they are hiding things. Not knowing the future direction of the company made it difficult to focus on where to generate IP. Also the appearance that Senior Management was paralyzed by making difficult decisions. The employees were treated as a number during reorganization instead of being evaluated by the skills they could supply. This resulted in a very poor fit to the position. Documenting everything has gotten out of control. The company needs to figure out how to create documentation in a smart and effective manner.
