Pros

Normal Benefits. Not much to say. Tries to compare with competitors and peers. No true incentive for employees to deliver more because of lack of incentives.

Cons

Exploits people by contracting work and not paying enough. Even though it is contracted, the compensation if not that good. Also contractors are treated like employees. Values are flexible because of the Crowd and hence can sway from one end of the spectrum to the other. No potential for growth. Pigeonholed! They just need robots who will produce reports and work for less pay. Compliant robots who conform to their operational guidance but cannot request any leeway or pay. Micromanagement and Less Pay. Need to bump up those salaries from 5 to 6 figures for some. 6 to 7 for the others. And not 7 to 8 figures for the Peak Hawks.

Pros

People who buy into the culture are driven and focused on results - weekly, monthly, quarterly numbers are everything. It's a dynamic environment with opportunities to move up.

Cons

Using the Gallup Strengthsfinder model for personnel decision leads to valueing test results over experience. Long term focus gets lost in the short term numbers. Management positions seems filled with most vocal and dynamic leaders, not necessarily the most qualified expert.

Pros

A very high paced competitive environment that pushes everyone to work really hard. There is a sense of pride and community at Stryker. A few more great things Stryker offers are Tuition Reimbursement, Good benefits, Free Gym, competitive salaries.

Cons

The interview process can be extremely long(4-6 interviewers) and the Gallup is weighted too much in selecting a candidate.
