Pros

Was a good company to work for before the FDA consent decree with good work-life balance and room for professional development.

Cons

Lack of support from middle management. when it was essential to provide good leadership and direction to engineers on important R&D projects. Upper management is not focused on new product development and is more concerned about recertification with the FDA and over burdening engineers with extensive and more complex SOPs that essentially prevent completion of projects on time.

Pros

Excellent health benefits and number of company holidays.

Cons

Unlike the Japanese headquarters company, the management team in MD and NJ seem to not know how to run a business or have a complete disregard of their own employees. Key management decisions/commitments are usually made behind closed-doors at the senior executive level between executives in Japan, and are handed-down as make-or-break deadlines without any consultation from the bottom-up. Finally, I do not expect the US business to be as successful as it currently is in the near-future. They do not intend to hire and promote those from the inside, and most of their new products are coming from Japan. It's only a matter of time before they start down-scaling the operations within the US to just a distributor and sales role.
