Pros
Great people that share a common passion. The product changes lives, so Starkey attracts great people and talent from around the world. The Foundation does great work around the world. Compensation is comparable to local, like companies.
Cons
Management must do something about how employees are treated. Brilliant people are called "stupid". All managers know what happens in this unhealthy culture, yet there is zero accountability to the behaviors. Talent was starting to leave when I left. I know of more key people more recently have left the company. Old boys club, with only a handful of women in Sr. Management positions across the company. No females at the VP level. People tend to age quickly due to stress. Strategy is lacking. Benefits are ok - but HORRIBLE short term disability. Ok, if you can withstand the suffocating culture.
