Pros

-None really. I did not learn a single thing that I could not have learned with google. Your career will not advance here

Cons

-THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT QUALITY. They say they do but they do not. Most jobs are done quickly but not well. This leads to lots of issues with yields, equipment failure, preventative maintenance, documentation, etc. -They have lots of documentation that is WRONG. The company knows this but hides it and will make team members sidestep protocols/rules/regulations to make updates -Your middle manager will actively sabotage your progress. This is because management promotes people to middle managers that have no previous management experience. -Management enforces and ignores rules and regulations as they please. This is highly unsafe and unprofessional -Management is manipulative does not see you as a person, they see you as a resource. I have overheard terrible conversations between managers about how they want to use people to do their bidding. -Management manipulates the facts and timelines of non-conformance reports to avoid high-level NCIRs and save money -All training is supplied via Applied Medicals internal departments. This means you don't get any certifications that you can use externally and you don't get proper training.

Quality is of the utmost importance to us. If ANY team member witnesses any inappropriate, unethical or illegal behavior they should report it to our anonymous third-party hotline, which is available on MyApplied in the Compliance resources section.

Pros

Lots of opportunities for growth and exposure to all varieties of the medical device lifecycle. Vertical integration is truly special for this and you will become a better engineer at this company. Overall positive culture, I have a friendly relationship with my management and I've enjoyed working with virtually all my peers.

Cons

Pay is lower than market average and you will need to put in more than what you'll get. There is also ambiguity on the metrics management assesses team member growth for promotions or pay increases. Work/life balance can get rough particularly in R&D depending on the project.
