Pros

The company makes good product and is profitable. Some nice people to work with but the majority are unprofessional and toxic. Many of whom have been in the company for a long time.

Cons

Toxic environment. Unpaid overtime is the norm. Out dated processes and technology to wok with.The company deliberately does not record salary employees time for obvious reasons. There is no option to take time in lieu to make up for salary employees doing overtime. There is poor transparency from management who talk constantly about the company values.

Pros

International company with some nice colleagues. The products make a difference in peoples lives.

Cons

Internal office politics focused on personal favoritism and ignoring poor performing employees. Company processes and roles and responsibilities are not defined which leads to confusion, internal politics and of course customer complaints. In the wake of COVID, speaking up on issues that are destroying the company is not advised as you will be in the firing line. The company is going through a cost cutting phase even though the financial results were better than expected post COVID. The company has a very high turnover rate before COVID and no long term skilled staff as anyone with options has already left. Scores of long term skilled employees 10-15+ years have been made redundant worldwide as a part of the cost cutting measures. The salary package is below market so get your experience in the medical device industry and move on as soon as you can. Opportunities for training and development were already nil before COVID so do not expect any extra support, training or salary/bonus increase. You are a complete fool if you think you have any future in this company. The result is a toxic work environment where staff are looking to pass the blame on to others when something goes wrong. The company only cares about the share price and not about its long term customer satisfaction or employee loyalty. Avoid at all costs.
