Pros

The product serves a purpose.

Cons

You are overworked to the breaking point. TS reps are regularly under the influence while possibly making life or death decisions, favoritism is rampant as is racism and discrimination, lots of coverup outside of regulatory guidelines, management does not care about employees - the bad ones or the good ones. Wait until patients start experiencing call center agents who are far away, while the execs watch the money come in for their ivory tower.

Pros

Introduction to inside sales and Med sales

Cons

VERY VERY poor management, Giving away free product is never a good sign for a company. Stock falling over half from over promising.......(Becasue of Poor leadership inside sales). Evaluations are non existent everyone gets the same. If you are lucky you get a button....There is no ability to excel here it is strictly about Quanity and not quality. Because Managment cannot fullfill their promises they have to puch "numbers" on everyone, that in return forces everyone to have quick calls and rush. When we rush we make mistakes and when we rush we also forget the reason behind why the Dexcom is so important. I Strongly reccommend anyone considering on working here to skip this interview and go on to the next one.

Great product, amateur upper management

Pros

The product is terrific, and it really helps control diabetes. Most of the lower and middle level co-workers are great.

Cons

Clueless upper management. Direction changes every few months. Pay is below industry standards, especially for female employees. Huge salary gender gap. High employee turnover, probably because workload is very heavy. Poor communication between departments, and lots of jockeying for position between managers. Company really has only one product, and no interest in developing others. The product has a limited lifespan. Don't come here if you are looking for a stable, long term job.

Thank you for sharing your feedback on working at Dexcom. I'm glad you see the value of the product and its impact on our patients. However, I disagree with your assertion that our pay practices are influenced by gender. We regularly review total compensation so that our top performers are paid appropriately for their high performance. We are also committed to a diverse workforce, and take great efforts to ensure pay differences reflect appropriate work-related factors. And if you believe that there is a problem in your department we would certainly like to address it, and I would encourage you to get in touch with your HR representative to discuss.
