Pros

Good place to work, good compensation, flexible, good people overall, life saving products with real life impact, good stewards of community

Cons

Slow paced, lacks of innovation and entrepreneurial drive, would rather buy innovation then invest within the company to innovate, senior management too risk averse and dug into their trenches. Needs a good shaking at VP and above level to rekindle the company
