Pros
There are more opportunities available for freshers and those who are seeking to learn. A new mobile phone of worth 10000/- can be reimbursed once in 3 years that too on a pro-rated basis, Broad band bill of 1200/- per month can be reimbursed. Other than these there are loads of tasks are given to employee Working tasks on functional aspects are good as most of the process deals with medical devices , regulation , compliance , QA etc.
Cons
IT Center in Bangalore was opened with the main intention of saving expenses mostly on everything including on office utilities those are made available to employees free of cost. Hence main focus was shifted from US to India to open a new office. A recent shifting of office from HAL to Outer ring road We Work is one of the blunder decision that management has ever made. When Medtronic policies on security , confidentiality , IPs are so stringent and strict then how come a shared Workspace like We Work was chosen to be a office destination, within the building one can see there are many other companies working with us just a simple separation of a transparent glass board that itself is a violation of all confidential norms of company . But the management is happy because they were able to save loads of money by moving to WeWork building. Testing team is spoiled to the core by bringing down the standards wherever they can find cost optimization. For all approvals there is only one manager who is seen as all powerful. Manager attitude is not less than compared to a dictator ,only a manager voice is heard and made effective in every decision making points. It is because of these reasons there are many absconding cases , early exit cases within 2-3 months of joining the company. So any new job seekers please be aware here don't get attracted by just looking into the product based profile, inside this is just another service based company trying to run its operations below its billing concers , at some situation even worser compared to a service company.
