Pros

competitive pay and benefits and most employees are inspired top do the best possible thing for the patients that get treated on the equipment

Cons

too many hours required and management in a constant state of flux and seems to always be trying something new rather than keep practices that work and make sense.

Pros

Good amount of downtime. Company car. Decent benefits. Fairly autonomous (depending on manager). Great troubleshooting experience.

Cons

Management can be overbearing. After being bought by Siemens, the company no longer values patient treatment over profit. Work life balance is seriously lacking. You may have downtime but you can’t plan anything during the week due to being on-call. Overtime is now heavily monitored, where it used to be a big selling point. Seeing as the hourly pay is relatively low compared to the job responsibilities.
