Pros

A strong and supportive team environment. A lot of opportunity for growth into various roles. Interesting, challanging, always learning.

Cons

There is no salary adjustment based on cost of living. Unless you live in the mid-west, you will make much less comparable to competitive companies in more expensive areas. Someone living in Iowa makes the same base salary as someone in NYC. You are expected to do a lot of your work on your own time as well as many events without compensation. Most colleagues I know work at minimum 60hrs a week. Most 70-80

Pros

The employees at this plant really do create a sort of family.

Cons

Ever since the lifting of the FDA 483 and the Guidant settlement, the work environment has been more fickle.

Headed in the wrong direction for too long

Pros

There are still some interesting technologies to be a part of that impact patients in very positive ways but the red tape and poor direction at this company are difficult to overcome.

Cons

Shrinking benefits, multiple RIFs, and annual re-organizations make this a company to avoid
