Pros

Go-getting people and nice facilities. Nice training classes. Good women's network. Nice team mates. Interesting industry. Opportunities to move to different departments.

Cons

Poor data managment systems and infrastructure. Management does not provide coaching or developmental encouragement. Job/title requirements unclear. Targets always seem to be moving. Not a technically strong company - predicate based designs from tribal knowledge

Business Outlook

Pros

You will learn how not to create a successful working environment. Use your experience with this culture to find and build a different culture. Success can be had by being honest, supportive, hard working, and technically adept.

Cons

Disrespect, incompetence rewarded, living with failures/fireldrills/end of word issues every day, honesty and openness is looked at as weakness, totally ineffective leadership, so much more. Stryker Ortho has little in house technical expertise. It's all with contractors and supplier. People do survive there, yet it's typically at the expense of others. In particular Stryker Ortho is the division you want to avoid.
