Pros

Pay and benefits are competitive. No shortage of work to do.

Cons

The company is Politically correct and extremely woke. The promote and celebrate the "Holiday of the month" yet intentionally avoid national holidays such as July 4th as to not offend anyone. Too may levels of bureaucracy and all the corporate managers/directors and "leaders" talk ALOT without saying anything. The company doesnt innovate anything instead, they just buy up and coming companies in there space and put BSC people in those roles and relegate the legacy people to menial roles. The company is extremely full of themselves while they struggle to compete with the big players in the space such as Medtronic, Abbott, J&J (Biosense Webster) etc...If you simply want a job and like the PC/Woke culture this is not bad.

Pros

Good pay. Good benefits. My coworkers who were at the same level as me were supportive.

Cons

Work environment was highly stressful and often unsustainable. Management created a culture where employees were frequently overworked, undervalued, and burned out. Communication from leadership was inconsistent and their expectations changed frequently. Work-life balance was very poor. Employee concerns did not get taken seriously unless they directly impacted company performance. When an HR compliant involving my supervisor was filed for his behavior with input from the majority of the team members, no meaningful action was taken beyond stating it was handled "per BSC policy". Opportunities for promotion and career advancement were limited. Employees who treated others poorly were often still rewarded or praised as long as performance metrics were met. There was a clear culture of favoritism and hierarchy, and employees outside of those circles could work above and beyond expectations without receiving recognition or advancement opportunities. In 2 years, there were 12 employees who were fired in a 10 person department.
