Integra LifeSciences reviews

1) Very little OT, if any 2) No room for growth, if any higher position comes open they hire outside the company for the position. 3) Makes you stay a temp for over a year maybe two 4) Raises of less then cost of living, around 1 - 2 %, which is average 0.12 to 0.30 cent more on the hour. But after insurance goes up every year your making maybe $3.00 more a week or $150.00 a year. 5) 40 plus weeks of no OT, won't let employees save money on Gas and time by going to 4 days a week 10 hour days.

1) Advancement - Do not expect to be promoted within this company. I was told my promotion was 12-24 months away for 3 years, after exceeding all my MBO's each year. 2) Expect little praise for hard work - If you are the type of person who needs to hear "good job" even once in a while, keep looking past Integra. If you find a $1 million cost savings opportunity, management will wonder why it was not $1.5 million and make you feel like a failure 3) Speaking of failure, dont expect to see new products launched. All new product launches are late and never meet expectations. Management continues to stress meeting timelines, but did not meet one in the time I was there. In fact a product set to launch when I started, was still a year from launch after I left (3+ years). 4) Integration of newly aquired companies. Growth by aquisition is the strategy and you will be expected to integrate, while keeping up with your current role. Wihout praise or compensation. 5) Speaking of compensation, dont expect much. Raises are non-existant (2% in 3 years) and bonuses are offered, but rarely paid. Mangement has the audacity to send out talking points to managers for them to explain the reasons why raises were so low. Clever things like 1% is industry average! Or my favorite, "our peer companies are not giving raises" when my friends at peer companies are telling me about the great raises they have gotten
