Pros

Great environment. Zimmer cares about their employees. Flexible for families. Great small town with big town amenities. Great bad weather policy (my first two days were snow days). Diverse job opportunities. If you are looking for a change in your job you can switch jobs and stay at the same company without moving.

Cons

If you want to live in a metro you will commute. There is a great gym but it could always be expanded.

Business Outlook

Pros

You get your pay check and vacations Only one company that has lot of job opportunities in the town

Cons

Very bad IT management team Not willing to work here for too long. Reviews are very much biased and single sided Layoffs every year based on nothing Lot of work, but nothing is achieved. No proper planning Red tape everywhere Process to implement a change is more complicated than the change itself. You will spend your life working on the process rather than the change itself. Horrible!!...change management team, who are gate keepers, but behave as CIO of company. Same as with some admin assistants. This place is dirty and the building does not seem to be like a IT building, have antique coffee maker and microwave. But microwave got replaced with some cheap version as the older one burnt out. The pantry supplies are always very very limited. only one urinals for the entire IT staff!!!...

Business Outlook

Pros

Interesting integration work as different divisions combine and acquisitions are made (e.g. purchase of additional Spine company in Colorado by the Biomet Spine division) good co-workers. Initiated conversion from legacy midrange ERP to SAP

Cons

Currently IT is being consolidated in Indiana so there are fewer positions in e.g. N.J. , Fla. as changes are made IT for one division is being consolidated in Colorado, and even then not sure how long it will be before most of the key management positions go to Indiana
