Great Starter Job for Professionals

Pros

This is a great place to begin your career if you are a salaried employee. The benefits are excellent and the culture is built on helping people (thanks to the founder Bill Cook).

Cons

Real promotions are hard to come by. One rare occasions your title may change but your salary will not. There is no real hierarchy built into the structure. Cook calls this "flat structure"- meaning that there is no where for you to go. If promotions are bestowed upon you it will be due to relationships and not necessarily merit.

Pros

There is zero accountability and you can basically never get fired.

Cons

Really poorly managed company that refuses to look at the outside world. All promotions are based on who you know. The pay is the worst in the industry. Park 48 food is terrible and the coffee is disgusting.

Products / Technology in many medical specialties Innovation Global reach & distribution Great brand recognition Patient focused organization Truly a company that can make a difference and positive impact Opportunity for advancement

Cons

Lack of people with leadership abilities or longterm vision Management kicks the can down the road Goals or vision rarely shared by upper management Leadership only communicates amongst top executives without sharing goals with the worker bees Promotions here only mean a new title and more responsibility, but often no pay increase Advancement within the headquarters is based upon who you know, not skillset, ambition or abilities Significant politics inside the HQ
