Pros
Decent benefits Company vehicle Company expense account It’s a big company, they are able to negotiate decent deals. The company vehicle for me was more of a con than anything else because it’s another vehicle you are responsible for.
Cons
Steris has gotten too big for it’s own good, from when I started to now it’s a nightmare. If you are a field employee, the management and executive teams seem to think you are disposable and frankly don’t care. You will have ZERO work life balance, ZERO help from management with difficult issues and customers, and once you are done with their ridiculous training program (over a year) you will be left on your own to fail or kill yourself trying to maintain convoluted KPI’s and impossible standards. Micromanaging is more prevalent than when I started after the new CEO took over, and upward movement in the company is unheard of. Compensation is regularly UNDER the industry average, annual raises are MAX 3% which is essentially nothing with rising costs of living and inflation. For mediocre pay, the amount you will work and associated stress is just not worth it.
