Not bad if you enjoy the politics

Pros

Great mission and satisfaction from working on medical devices.

Cons

Internal politics, more time spent battling other groups for funding within Medtronic than focusing on the competition. Poor portfolio decisions by senior management, and when competition passed us up with a new device it was the employees fault if the copy cat project wasn't completed in an unreasonably short time. Little respect or appreciation for working overtime (which happened all the time).

Pros

People tend to work well together and respect each other despite the many challenges and daily stresses.

Cons

Very limited potential for growth and development. Junior and inexperienced employees tend to be selected for advanement rather than accomplished and experienced employees.
