Pros

Prior company (Cyberonics) work atmosphere, career opportunities, and benefits far exceeded the current situation.

Cons

Intent of merger may have been to have more product offerings and improve market share, but neither really materialized.

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review, and for your long tenure. Our merger nearly seven years ago has aided in allowing us to offer a wider portfolio of products to customers and patients the world over. Our company’s strategic direction is set by our leadership team, which is updated on an annual basis to achieve our goals and objectives. There is a publicly available version of this on our website at livanova.com. We’re proud of the contributions from our employees, like you, to support us over the years. We are disappointed to read the feedback but thank you for providing it to us.

Pros

I think leadership puts a lot of thought into strategy, including the new human imperatives. They're having the right discussions and gathering employee insights. The culture is good and getting better from where i sit (but there is a lot of variability on experiences based on location culture) and I haven't met very many 'weak links' - people are smart and they work hard. Most people really, sincerely care about helping patients.

Cons

The size of the company means career pathing will just be limited. You really have to take control of your path and forge it- you can't wait for the organization to bubble up opportunities for you in a way that may be possible at larger organizations.
