Pros

Toward the end, I was having such a negative experience, that I really can't name many. They used to take care of employees with the bonus structure that was in place, but that isn't the case anymore. Profit-share, performance, and xmas bonus have been cut every year for many years now. I've watched co-workers in tears because they relied on a bonus that used to be there that wasn't anymore.

Cons

Micromanagement, lack of empathy from management, constantly asking for more from employees without corresponding compensation. They recently cut back in EVERY. BONUS. CATEGORY. Rumors about the highest members of management being investigated for insider trading - funny too, because their lack of faith in THEIR OWN COMPANY caused us all to lose massive amounts of money in stocks. HR loves to talk about the CDP which only works if you have a supervisor that is willing to help you. The patient advocate supervisors that are truly good are few and far between. The rest are so stressed out by the expectations from their own managers, that they have to micromanage and make their teams lives a living hell in order to meet metrics. Can't tell you how many times I could do something completely correctly and still get docked and still get feedback about "how I could improve". If you're employees are doing a good job, why not just tell them that? Let them feel good for a modicum of a second? Nope, not here. No good feelings, I'm glad to have moved on. I've since heard about changes since I left and I am so grateful I left when I did. No silver lining, no dawn on the horizon.

Working here isn't terrible, but it isn't outstanding either

Pros

Colleagues are great to work with. Most supervisors will bend over backwards to assist and accommodate your needs.

Cons

Upper management seems take take credit for ideas that wasn't there's. Then blame lower management such as supervisors for their own faulty ideas. HR also seems to be a lot less approachable.

Pros

Great job for people who want to make a difference, strong science behind products

Cons

Company is unresponsive to market changes and demands, weak mid level leadership at the mother ship, salary and bonus structure make it very easy to leave this company
