Pros

Benefits are good, cushion-y job

Cons

Company is growing so quickly and aggressively, intense goals to grow in size by 2025, execution of growth and taking care of new employees is extremely poor, no process in place, people to go to, internal politics make job very difficult to preform, drawing the line between own role and other teams is a constant battle left to employees to determine, management sits in Europe - can be difficult for US team to get adequate support, in-fighting between teams for work, teams are often dissolved and this is communicated through the grape-vine, acquisitions of company’s so poorly explained and rolled out to internal teams, working with global teams in Europe - communication and cultural understanding of other teams is so poor, time zone issues, more focus and priority goes to Europe colleagues taking vacations than resounding and supporting the customers adequately. Sartorius is shiny on the outside, horribly dysfunctional and disorganized on the inside. However, if you want to mold into a position, get by under the radar, and coast you can definitely do that without being seen here for likely a number of years - if that’s what you’re looking for.

Pros

Great products and a nice people to work with.

Cons

Lead times are outrageous and management lack a plan to implement positive change. Unrealistic growth, and need to reward high performers, not just a number. Lost several key personal and top performers at the end of 2017.. need to retain talent especially in key markets, hurting reputation with customers.
