Pros

Uncapped commissions, good benefits, good experience in Med Device sales

Cons

Working as a Sales Representative at Stryker can be incredibly frustrating due to a toxic culture driven by inconsistent leadership and a lack of accountability. Sales managers frequently shift expectations without clear metrics, and compensation adjustments can be arbitrary, sometimes based on unverified claims rather than actual performance. Favoritism runs rampant, with some reps held to different standards than others. The culture encourages backstabbing, as teammates spread falsehoods to gain a financial advantage, leaving you guilty until proven innocent. If you're looking for a fair and transparent sales environment, this may not be the place for you.

Pros

The individual contributors you work with are fantastic people and the products we work on are really interesting and have significant impacts on patient care.

Cons

Sports Medicine has unfortunately changed from a dynamic and collaborative group to one being led by toxic leadership. Rather than working together and trusting team members, they now have an in group and out group. If you’re in the in group, you can say anything you want without being questioned and be automatically trusted even when your track record says otherwise. If you’re in the out group and your message doesn’t align with what the leadership wants to hear, then you are automatically wrong and not to be trusted.
