Pros
Prior to the sale, Leadership cared about the associates. The CEO used to be a Biomed Technician, and therefore understood many of the challenges facing the employees. The atmosphere was that of a small, tight-knit organization, despite having almost 1,000 employees.
Cons
Everything changed when the company was sold to a Private Equity firm. The entire Executive team was replaced, and the focus became solely that of turning a profit. Turnover amongst the staff skyrocketed after the change as well. Those who could get in with the new executive team were rewarded, and those who did not, were asked to leave. Many in upper management do not even reside in the Indianapolis area. They chose to fly in for the work week, and fly back home for the weekends.
