Pros
Fair pay, good work/ life balance, decent benefits package and 401(k). Nice new, modern office. The work being done there will make your resume more attractive for future employers. If you can stick it out for a couple years and get promoted, it will help grow your career.
Cons
Projects are regularly given insufficient resources and expected to succeed. When help is asked for, it is rarely given. Competent employees become overloaded and asked to make management-level decisions. Management runs fast and loose and as a result, avoidable and expensive errors get made. There is no harmonization across Integra locations and corporate management is out of touch with site operations and priorities. Integra introduces new products by purchasing companies, not by investing in R&D. The future of the Mansfield site as a design center for new products is uncertain at best, and the legacy Codman personnel have started to flee. Morale is at a low after recent firings of high performing site management, some of whom had been promoted recently by the same managers who turned around and fired them. There is no sense of stability or long-term vision. A review posted Dec 19 accurately summarized the culture as being intense, hostile, and at times inappropriate. Integra has a big culture problem. The worst bullying and demeaning behavior I experienced was from corporate management. If you are considering a job here: there are ways to improve your resume that won’t wear you down so completely.
