      Pros

      Great Product. They used to throw good parties when Terry Gregg was CEO.

      Cons

      -Bad ideas/products are forced to work and not abandoned as a bad idea or product -Innovations to correct deficiencies in current products are viewed as admitting guilt and therefore not pursued -Passive-aggressive management and communication -No communication between departments -"Dexcom Speed" is unrealistic and unsustainable -Accountability is non-existent within management -Promotions and pay increases are only available for favorites -Nepotism is real -Facilities Management hates everyone (good luck with having a request addressed) -HR is fake and is only there to protect Management not the employee

      Great people / Exceptional growth

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Working for a medical device company has great rewards because our customers benefits from our first in class product. They have one good looking spoke person: Nick Jonas. They are one of the sponsor for Tour de Cure and provide a jersey if you raise $200 and more. Great team and co-workers. One of the few company that offers Tech Support in house (instead of Philippines or India)

      Cons

      Heard mixed comments from different departments. Because of the rapid growth, our department is short staffed and established employees are spread thin. Thus, no time to get additional training and stay up to date with the new technologies. Then you have bad reviews because your yearly goals are partially completed. Credit is not given to individual contributor, but to the supervisor or manager. Get ready to get calls in the middle of the night even if you are not 24hr IT support. Get ready to be asked to work from home during medical leave. Couple cases of burnout among my colleagues. Salary below market value, except for management (who by the way drive Tesla and the like). Public shaming of parking offenders (companywide emails). They tow your car without notice when you are not in the right company's parking space.

      Excellent team, valuable and interesting work

      Pros

      - The work we do helps real people manage their medical condition. - The people I work with are really bright, dedicated, and passionate about what we do. Many have personal reasons for wanting to work in Diabetes-related care (i.e., family members with diabetes). - Great new office downtown, lots of bike-parking, and so on. - Competitive compensation.

      Cons

      - Not the best support for working remotely, & limited tolerance of it. - Benefits aren't quite the best. They're good, probably industry standard, but not the best I've enjoyed.
