Pros

- Great benefits package, especially medical insurance - somewhat flexible with your hours - 401K and pension In general, I liked working at Medtronic, and would like it more if their salary was more competitive since the pay is great. Sometimes it feels like upper management makes all the decisions and others don't get much of a say.

Cons

- Parking lot very crowded, need a structure - pay is not competitive - cafeteria food is not very good - very hard to get career advancement - HR has slow turnaround

Pros

Generous, old-school benefits. Almost twice the PTO as other places I've worked, excellent healthcare, 401K matching, etc. Many high-quality colleagues and a generally mellow, polite business culture.

Cons

Multiple competing bureaucracies, internal consultancies, a computer-illiterate 'stakeholder' class with permission to disrupt anything, and perverse incentives driving waste.
