Pros

Employees willing to adjust and work hard as things change. Managed the COVID disruption to daily work extremely well. Product technology is important to delivering therapy to patients so the general mission is positive. New D&I initiatives are great to see.

Cons

Compensation has tanked. Continuing education is non-existent which is problematic if the company wants to move toward digital healthcare. Under resourced in multiple areas. Strategy changes faster than the weather.

Very top heavy in span of control with too many VPs and Directors. Very low employee engagement score where HR holds one of lowest scores which is not surprising.
