Pros

Timely monthly salary transfer. Good products and interesting field of activity.

Cons

Silo mentality, everyone has to work according to process, no cross-departmental work. Employee and department terminations. Everyone is concerned about their job. Departments and business areas are being outsourced, This leads to a massive drop in quality.

Pros

It is a privilege to be able to impact peoples lives on a daily basis by doing what we do best. I love what I do and everyday is a blessing. The care culture of Smith and Nephew ensures that we are well looked after and our voices are heard. We are all respected in what we do best and guided with kindness to ensure we all fit into the culture of the company. Best place to work!

Cons

We work with patients' lives making what we do fast paced, longer hours and at some points very stressful.
