Pros

Good retirement package. Usually hires good talent. Vacation after 2 years is 3 weeks plus personal days.

Cons

Field work on call on weekends. Somewhat of a high turnover which is tough for the field employees due to the time you invest in training new hires. Advisories or recalls of medical devices. Every year it seems that Medtronic realigns divisions and management and more recently wants to get reps to cross cover areas outside of their respective expertise. Definitely >40 hr work week.

Pros

The best company I’ve ever worked for.

Cons

Really can’t think of many. It’s heavily matrixed but that’s to be expected.

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.
