Pros

Fantastic company with a great history of innovation and achievement. True talent-based culture. Making a difference in the lives of surgeons and patients.

Cons

The company has lost its soul by shifting its center of gravity from Michigan to New Jersey. Many of the best people, who built the company, have been dumped for "shiny" New Jersey talent. In a few years, Stryker will be no different from any other company in orthopedics, which is a real loss for the industry.

Pros

-Overall high level of talent that you work with -Massive Economies of Scale -Healthy bonus related to healthy company performance

Cons

- Poor Work/Life Balance - HR really only works for Director's and up, and enables their behavior regardless of alignment with company values. Just there to protect the shield - Upstream Marketing has little to know upward growth or trajectory even with years of high ratings on reviews. Must carry the bag to grow career at Stryker.
