Cook Medical Inc reviews

-chronic culture of hopelessness and failure due to lack of support from leadership -a top selling point is 'we don't do lay offs'...proceeds to do lay offs -we are asked for support but then ignored, never receiving the resources, staffing, or training necessary to succeed in our roles and projects. Individuals are then held accountable for systemic failures stemming from poor leadership -The stakeholders of projects do not support the projects they are sponsoring. They demand results without reason or listening status updates or program deficiencies that could cost the company billions -Do not have a UDI team, the company could face millions in loss if they cannot meet global market requirements in 2024 -Co-workers are combative, unhelpful, and grown very comfortable in their roles of low expectations in the last 30 years. It is disappointing so little gets done adequately, if it gets done at all. In the words of the CEO, there is an accountability problem -Silo'd, teams do not like to work together -Data integrity is not important to the staff at Cook. They do not always have critical data on products -Decades behind, technologically -The company is struggling financially and may not offer competitive pay or a stable job

Cons: Dead end, no promotions available unless you fit in with the clique The "yearly raise" is non existent and based on metrics that change every year. Rules change all the time HR doesn't function except to snuff out employees seeking to unionize The pay is literally lowest in the entire medical device industry. I was also told to pass bad dilators while I was employed, and told by multiple fellow coworkers that it was not uncommon after refusing to pass the product.
