Pros

Great place to learn about medical device industry and FDA regulations

Cons

You're expected to work at least 60 hours/week at a minimum, work/life balance is non-existent, managers are looking out only for themselves, they will mistreat you just to make themselves look good and macho. Not much in terms of new products in pipeline, a stagnating environment overall.

Pros

Working on projects at the forefront of the industry provides great learning opportunities and a great way to gain experience. The benefits are good and above average for the industry and there is flexibility with work schedule and taking vacation time. Global interaction and occasional opportunities for travel are also a plus. Most of the time, colleagues are friendly and easy to work with.

Cons

There are multiple layers of management (expected for a large corporation), that slow down communication across the organization. Reorganization also seems to be a common theme throughout various areas of the company, thus lowering morale. Employee turnover is moderate. Salaries don't seem to be as high as other companies and the ways to advance your career or get promoted are not clear.

Pros

Speaking about the HQ in Marlborough, specifically Endo - it’s a great place to work if you are a white American or white European: opportunities, preference, first in line for promotions

Cons

They will make you miserable if you are not a white American. Lots of micro aggressions, zero opportunities and zero recognition/promotions. They will prioritize white folks. They pride themselves of being diverse and inclusive - that’s just propaganda, only words.
