Pros

Culture. Tons of autonomy, interesting work. You're working for a company who actually cares about making people's lives better--not just lip service. Also they are obsessed with growth, and with growth comes opportunity.

Cons

Because it's grown so much, more process and centralization is happening. The big and multiple promotions that were available are slowing down now. Also you've got more of a focus on cutting costs than ever before. Things like headcount freezes, budget clawbacks/cuts, etc. have an impact on what you can accomplish in your role and team. Still overall it's a company full of great people all lined up to do as much good as possible.

Pros

Worked with Stryker for over 6 years, and you do run across some good personalities, there aren't too many positives.

Cons

- The workplace is very hostile -Expectations are set, but it's unsaid that you need to far exceed them. Then new expectations are set based on previous results. Rinse and repeat, until you work yourself to death or you promise something that the company can't back up and they get rid of you. -While it didn't happen to me personally, I saw several reps have commissions and bonus go unpaid or paid to a different rep because of the whims of management. -Pay isn't competitive and the management does not care -You are a tool for the management, not a person. -Sociopaths run amok in management, so unless you are sociopathic or have some tough skin, you won't survive or move anywhere in the company.
