Pros

Amazingly interesting product that is able to help people in such a positive way and that is a great feeling. Stock options so long as the stock is low.

Cons

Not a collaborative team environment, people throw each other under the bus all the time and claim credit for work that they do not perform. It's also a very sterile environment where people do not really interface which creates a depressing environment. There is no work/life balance, expect to work 70+ hrs and weekends. Also do not trust HR, there is no such thing as anonymous at this company. This is a boys club environment and anyone that speaks up for concern of cutting corners affecting quality or any other HR issues will be pushed out of the company.

Pros

This is a new field, with lots of challenges in many areas. The right answers are being figured out now, and working at Intuitive Surgical all of us get to be a part of that. It's by far the most talented and motivated group of people I've ever worked with, and everyone can see the impact of their work on the product, and the patients who are treated with it. It's a very ethical and data-driven place to work; there's relatively little drama about even major decisions, and though decisions don't always go the way I think they should, I do feel that I've got a say in them and that my voice is heard.

Cons

There's only one I see: there's nowhere to hide. If you're the kind of person who just wants to coast in a job, this is not the place for you. Everyone is given a lot of individual responsibility, which is part of the philosophy of small, nimble product teams.
