Pros

Dexcom is the place to be if you appreciate rapid growth and development. This company moves faster than any other place I've worked at, so the work is never boring. Continuous changes and obstacles keep employees on their toes and foster creative thinking and problem solving amongst the employees. In the past few years I have felt myself grow so much and there is still a lot of opportunity for my personal development. My manangement line sees the hard work and dedication I put in and is always looking to help me better myself as both an individual contributor to the team and as a leader of people. There are a lot of pain points associated with an organization that is growing as fast as we are, but the team here consists of some of the smartest, hardest working, and innovative individuals I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. The environment is highly collaborative and while the normal office politics exist, they don’t run the business. I truly love working at Dexcom.

Cons

It is hard at times to not feel overwhelmed with pressure when deadlines are approaching, Dexcom takes new product launches very seriously and does not accept NO for an answer when trying to meet their timelines. This problem perpetuates itself because EVERYONE is so busy and overwhelmed that sometimes it feels there is nowhere to turn for guidance. This can make an employee fairly frustrated but it’s also provided me with the strength and tool set to work through larger problems on my own.

Pros

What an unbelievable product it was the second most fulfilling and rewarding position I have had.

Cons

The place really took a dive after they brought on New Management that didn't know anything. They ran everyone who was good away and technical support management is garbage however the CEO and family and people around them are great

Customer Service Dept. Poorly Ran

Pros

Great people. Product is making a diference

Cons

Read some of the other reviews from the customer service dept. and they are absolutely true. They are under appreciated and micromanaged to the point where the work environment feels toxic from lack of freedom. You are constantly being pushed to go above and beyond for the patient, but punished when actually doing so because it does not favor high 'numbers'.
