Pros

Good working culture. Employee safety and the quality of products really matter. The patients matter. Nice, friendly people to work with too.

Cons

Doesn't convert their temp employees as often or as fast as you'd like. Takes about 2-3 years to possibly get converted to full time regular employees. Because of this the temps have left to pursue better opportunities. This causes employees to have to waste time retraining new workers.

Great salary and team! The interview process was smooth and effective.

Pros

The work is meaningful and overall the company vision aligns with my goals

Cons

QA management has become inept. None of the leadership (aside from maybe one or two) truly understand the nuances of our site and jobs. They refuse to pay you more due to "budget" reasons but won't provide much information, they claim to be transparent but will make decisions behind your back and not communicate them, even if they impact you and/or your job. Leadership doesn't listen to feedback and gets defensive if you even try to give any. It honestly has become a game of politics only in QA and that's not really building any real quality culture.
