Pros

Great culture. Smart, young, and cool company (think Apple or Google). Average age seems like it must be between 20-30 yrs, Travel to places you've never been (Germany, all over the USA). Great Benefits (Medical PPO, Dental, Vision). Gratifying work because it influences patient treatment. Company parties a couple times a year (open bars, music, meals, airfare... the works). Lots of perks (frequent flyer miles, hotel stay programs, rental cars, Max per diem $40/day for travel, lots of tools).

Cons

Pay is on the lower end of the 'competitive' range. Travel can get exhausting. Paperwork and documentation is an ever-present annoyance (welcome to the medical-device industry). Dealing with customers can be tricky (They always expect perfection). Training is getting better but still leaves a lot to be desired. Career advancement happens quickly, but somewhat unexpectedly (hard to plan a career arc). Lots of turnover (employees leave, change job titles, or get promoted after about 2-3 yrs at their position)
