- I was excited for the product innovation portion. However in big companies, you don't really get much of this. It is mainly just making better what they have done in the past. Not too exciting.
- learned that a lot of the products are made by other manufacturers and Stryker puts their name on it. They are a really great sales company.
- they boast about how they have this young, hip vibe. This is one of their selling points. However this vibe is extremely cliqueish. Think high school wrapped up in sorority/fraternity type. They exclude for sure. On an individual basis they can be good to talk to. In a group, they have like this really weird mob mentality.
- HR definitely has their favorites. If you are not one of them, good luck come review season.
- some people who you think are your friends will be the first to write a negative review about you and bring your score way down. They will say nice things about you in your face, but trash your name and work behind you. It was so weird to witness.
- they have some really bad apples at the company that they can't seem to get rid of. These people are so bad that people drop out of teams because of it. People also pull you aside to tell you to watch out about these people.
- managers are too young and not ready to manage. They need more training on how to be an effective team leader.
- there needs to be more on the job training.
- it's weird how there is this huge rift between engineers and marketing.
-this office is severely lacking in the diversity department.
