Pros

Life saving technology that truly changes lives.

Cons

Very much a silo mentality. Departments have poor flow of communication and the mindset is such it’s not needed for other departments to know because that’s not in the persons job responsibilities. Makes for duplication of work for many in an environment that’s already extremely busy.

Pros

Pay & benefits are okay.

Cons

Incompetent management is the worst. People are promoted to management internally based largely on their ambition and ability to spout process-ese. And then it's all a horribly painful experiment, like an elective, experimental surgery elected by the surgeon himself, at the expense of an unwilling (but politely docile) patient. At least one office that I know about has explicitly instituted an ageist hiring policy. They no longer want to hire anyone but young, white males, and the argument for the young part is that they want a chance to "shape" these software engineers. They're re-creating the 50's in their beautiful office. They don't bother interviewing minority engineering candidates, and it is not necessary for them to give a reason because there is no oversight or diversity auditing at Dexcom. Need I say more? Who would want to work at such a place? Oh... maybe young white males! Have at it! I was amazed when one day I asked someone at this office (on the way out at the time) whether he understood that he was missing something by having no diversity around him, and he said no, the injury is all upon the people who cannot be there. They are blind, these men - even the wisest and kindest among them. It's a culture of ignorance. They have no idea that people who do not look like them can contribute anything different, because they have no experience. Engineers are engineers are engineers, to them.
