Pros

The company has some great life-saving products and very passionate employees.

Cons

Neuovascular division (NV) Management is running the business into the ground. Very counter-productive environment. Definitely work hard and not smart. Strategies pulled out of the air and constantly changing. Wages are below market and health benefits are standard. There is very little investment in employees. There's so much potential but the leadership in Sales organization is awful and stalls great employees. Recently both East Sales Executive VP and West Sales Executive VP resigned due to unbearable leadership. Culture is not open to new ideas as the organization is run like a dictatorship. I hope other business units within Medtronic umbrella are run better. Great people are leaving.

Pros

You don't get a family life, they expect you to be on call 24/7. The management continually harasses you and micromanagement is the norm. If you are not in a profit division, you will be dispensable.

Cons

You never see your family. You are vastly underpaid

Pros

Good compensation, benefits. Company has a nice reputation.

Cons

Atmosphere of fear and intimidation. Blame and fault finding is primary objective of completely uninvolved management team. Sad part is that HR actively participates in this dysfunction, even actively works to promote this atmosphere. Gotcha!! This was literally the worst employment experience of my life.
