_ RIDICULOUS amount of office politics - lots of backstabbing in senior management
- Extremely stressful work environment - be prepared to work and work and work, it's never enough
-Lousy communication and lots of micromanaging
-Human Resources is never on your side - this includes local HR as well as senior level HR in Corporate (which by the way is a joke). They never try to get both sides of any story, nothing remains confidential, and they don't inform you of any issues that are occurring
-They allow too much to be swept under the rug and they don't investigate issues you're having unless you're a manager. If you tell them about a problem or inappropriate situation it falls on deaf ears
-People play games to get to the top and they will throw you under any bus to get ahead
-Tons of lying and talking behind backs
-The environment here is very similar to junior high school, it's gossip gossip gossip - lots of infidelity going on too
-Unprofessional - let managers get away with bad mouthing former employees or people who still work for Stryker but are now in a different department. What kind of company thinks that's okay?
