      Pros

      A superb market leader in the medical devices domain, Stryker has a highly motivated team that has a strong drive to excel. It is a high performer in meeting revenue and Wall Street expectations - has shown double digit growth for the past 13+ years. The company fosters cutting edge innovations in medical devices, has a great team and is poised for dynamic growth in the years to come. Company offers excellent benefits, including noteworthy 401(K) contribution by employer.

      Cons

      The company screens all employees through a Gallup personality profile test, checking for high achiever characteristics. While this does ensure a highly motivated workforce, it attracts lot of type "A" personalities, that some times, makes for aggressive competition internally and less teamwork.

      Pros

      The travel was nice, the autonomy was nice, and the use of technology was refreshing, after having worked in an office/ cubicle environment for several years. The district meetings were fun, and the vision of the company was worth promoting.

      Cons

      However, the workload was insane and it seemed like they just kept piling more and more on you... Forget about taking a sick day or planning a vacation. I ended up cancelling or postponing vacations so many times, and when I finally did take a long weekend, it seemed like all hell broke loose and they really began micromanagement at that time. The customer service base back in Phoenix can make or break your monthly sales goals, and my customer integration manager was horrible. She sent more nasty emails than my worst enemy, and clogged my Blackberry instead of just calling and clearing up miscommunication.

      Under-utilized, road-blocked, old boys club and indecisive leadership.

      Pros

      Good 401k. Great if you are into FDA regulations. Good lab equipment. Some people were really great to work with.

      Cons

      Feels like rushing a fraternity every day. Extreme favoritism and nepotism. Too many unqualified cooks in the kitchen. Gallup poll hired the wrong people -- too many type A personalities. Pay is low.
