Pros

Pay varies by division and performance, but the average Stryker rep is paid very well. 100% commission role, annual bonus paid in Jan based on previous year. Sold for 3.5 years - in my worst year I made $265k, best I made $415k (in my mid-late twenties). Stryker is a very sales focused company - valued feedback from reps and has aggressive R&D and M&A to own whatever market they’re in. Great place to make life changing money as a young rep

Cons

Stryker pays well so you put up with the toxic culture. Leadership blatantly says “Stryker first” meaning you’re expected to put company above family/personal life. Quota gets bigger and territory gets smaller every year. I ended up leaving after 8 years in various roles to prioritize family and mental health, both of which are neglected as a Stryker rep.
