Dysfunctional and sexist leadership - join at risk to your health and career
Pros
The technology and customers are exciting and fulfilling to work with. You'll enjoy your time if that's what your job function lets you do most of the time, but do not expect career growth or any investment in your development outside of whatever the current leadership instructs. You will work more and earn less over time.
Cons
Everything else about working for Intuitive is miserable. Leadership is incompetent and so dysfunctional with an openly-embraced lack of diversity. Sexism and harassment is prolific and built into promotional and hiring processes. The work environment is much like a cult, where you cannot express any different opinion to the leaders and if you do, expect to be shunned, targeted, and bullied. You will be expected to give 100% of yourself to the job with nothing left for anyone or anything else in your life. Aggressive and arrogant white men, who lie and steal credit for accomplishments to promote themselves and other men dominate the director and VP levels and protect each other. If you are asked to share your opinion on how things can improve, beware, it's just a tactic to determine who needs to be weeded out or isolated. There are so many other companies with better opportunities, it's not worth the stress and psychological torture at Intuitive. Competition is coming, and I will be jumping ship as soon as I can. There are many others feeling the same way, so any new employees will immediately find they are drowning in work that high-performers who left were already overwhelmed with and leadership is so incompetent and uninspiring most of them cant even actually do the job they are leading, which is why you will get ZERO useful development from your leader. You'll be on your own.
