Pros

*Incredibly strong company (Most profitable med device company in the world, corporate growth surpassing market, #1 in the world in core business areas, #1 patient-rated med device company in the world) *Very flat structure meaning an absence of hierarchy and the opportunity to interact with all levels in the organization *Fast-moving and nimble organization. The company is open and accepting of new ideas to respond to evolving challenges. *Exposure to multiple areas and topics in the company *Flexible environment with many fun and relaxed-in-attitude coworkers (despite overloaded with work)

Cons

*Insufficient resources, across both personnel and systems; This helps reduce corporate cost base, but means each employee has a large range of responsibilities *Less developed or formalized career progression, unclear what the next step is or opportunity could be *Field sales runs the show, which challenges those in-house to be heard when countering sales' decisions

Pros

At Coloplast, one of the key strengths is its global scale and diversified portfolio across multiple divisions. The company is particularly well established and highly respected in the ostomy space, with strong brand recognition and a solid reputation among clinicians and healthcare systems

Cons

Limited access to key contracts within the Advanced Wound Care (AWD/WTR) segment, creating barriers to growth and competitiveness * Product pricing not consistently aligned with perceived clinical value or market positioning * Ongoing quality concerns reported with foam dressings, impacting confidence in the portfolio * Lack of visible acknowledgment or accountability from leadership regarding field challenges * Perception of misalignment between field feedback and leadership response, with concerns not always addressed transparently * Limited cross-functional support for sales teams; heavy reliance on field reps to gather insights without sufficient internal analytical or evidence-based backing * Missed opportunities to provide structured, data-driven support to strengthen customer conversations and value messaging
