Stryker reviews

Stryker can be very cut throat because of its highly paced environment. If you don't perform, you are quickly identified. However, the opposite is true as well. So, if you are not the type who thrives on competition and recognition based on performance, this is not a place for you. Also, the Gallup test can be very restrictive during the hiring process. They have gotten better but in the past, they used one profile matrix to hire every position. Obviously the same profile matrix for a sales or marketing position will not apply properly for an engineer or a manufacturing technician. Many good people in my opinion weren't even considered for this reason. Lastly, the HR isn't the most supportive organization. Again, they rely too heavily on the boiler plate Gallup model and misses the opportunity for individual employee development. The high turnover rate is a good indication for this.

Some employees hired for support are not properly trained to do their jobs (or do not care enough). Can be too competitive, to the point of sabotage. Some departments use the gallup to measure up potential employees, I do not believe this is an accurate indicator of potential ability. Management needs to know when to cut their losses when an employee is not measuring up.
