Business Outlook

Pros

Pay and benefits were competitive

Cons

By far the worst company I've ever worked at. The leadership is morally and ethically bankrupt. The CEO is not equipped to run the company and it shows. Completely disorganized and inefficient. I wouldn't recommend anyone to work here.

Pros

It’s a cult. If you feel the need to belong. Go for it

Cons

Women are undervalued and sexually harassed. Audiologists are belittled. Those that advance have learned to play the game. Old white boys network

Pros

- The people...a lot of great people work there! - On-campus cafeteria - Good benefits - Well-planned events - Awesome creative design team

Cons

- Lack of leadership with expertise; people in leadership positions are often promoted based on tenure, not proven experience - Horrible work/life balance. Work keeps piling on and employees get easily burnt out - Very Hierarchical; providing feedback that doesn't align with leadership is NOT welcomed - Trying to run before they can walk with product development, and not addressing manufacturing & product issues. No amount of marketing or customer service can fix the problem if the product isn't working. They seem to have the right people in place, but unrealistic expectations about how quickly they can go to market with new products - A lot of egos at the top
