Pros

Unique culture, very good products, well respected company, multiple divisions. Very good stock purchase program.

Cons

Unique culture, Leadership does not understand the general surgery space. If you come in as Surgical Solutions, very little opportunity for career growth.

Pros

Good benefits, decent pay, great allotment of time off

Cons

Poor communication across the company. You never know who to contact for anything & no one else knows either. They say there's no hierarchy but there is. Some people act like they're better than you & are very entitled. Some leaders speak disrespectfully to support staff. Administrative Support are treated like they don't matter. Not even an acknowledgement on Admin Professional's Day. No kind of acknowledgements all - birthday, holiday...very strange environment. Being laid off turned out to be a blessing as I was not happy there. They are heartless, unfeeling people. Not at all what I thought Gore would be. A lot of people lost their jobs and yet they've spent tons of money on picnics and parties and stay in expensive, luxury hotels when they travel for business. It's disgusting. So glad to be gone from there.
