Boston Scientific reviews

The management sucks and there’s no growth with the company unless you miss up

Not much opportunity for career advancement once you are past entry level. You are on your own for skills development. Engineers are treated as interchangeable, frequently moved between projects based on whatever management is panicking about at the moment. High turnover among top performers. Mediocre engineers stay forever. Overwhelming amount of bureaucracy, even by the standards of a large medical device company. Ten people creating documents for every one engineer. Management is clueless why everything takes so long and costs so much. Managements' answer to any problem is to create another layer of bureaucracy. No leadership from division management, they seem happy to coast along. Management decisions take forever, sometimes missing the opportunity. Upper management is only motivated by money, no matter what they claim about patients, customers or employees. Management shipped all Neuromod manufacturing work to Ireland and Costa Rica. Moving more and more engineering to same places. Great for Ireland and Costa Rica, not so great for U.S. Upper management is very self-congratulatory about how supportive they are of women, minorities, etc. However, it is just lip-service. For example, departments are highly segregated by sex: engineers are all men, HR and marketing mostly women. Top management all white men.
