Pros

-Clean and beautiful building -Kitchen fully stocked

Cons

-The culture of the company changed, It is very secretive and Divisive -Salaries not competitive (Management said because of benefits, which were downgraded without notice) -Lack of performance reviews. You don’t know if you are performing as expected and you don’t get any bonuses or pay increase. -Food is provided, but they brag about it and keep bringing it up to the employees constantly. -You accumulate PTO but if you dare to take it, you won’t here the end of it. They don’t expect a life-work balance. -Initial team was great but now, there is no sense of teamwork. -People got fired because they dare to express their opinions. If you work here you basically have to be a “Yes-men” with the CEO and CFO -Lack of management, you don’t know who reports to who. Basically everyone reports to CEO -After I left, my friend (who still works at the company) says that they talk badly about former employees. I find this very disrespectful and unprofessional. -Political, Racial and Religious comments (which in any other environment would be inappropriate), are constantly made by management.

Surgenex has always paid for 100% of health/dental/vision premiums for all employees and their families. 15 days of PTO are given to all employees annually. Additionally, Surgenex has a 6% 401k match which is vested on the 1st day of employment. The company invests in highly skilled people with industry experience, and has minimal turnover in staff. Pay increases and promotions are merit based.

Pros

If you are buddies with upper management you'll be fine

Cons

Poor leadership, meat grinder style where 1 mistake and youre gone regardless of how long you have been there or how your performance has been up to that point. In fact Im convinced management will randomly fire people periodically just to strike fear into the team to keep everyone in line. Quality standards and regulations are NOT followed despite supervisors trying to micromanage you at every turn. Even long term employees are regularly berated over tiny incidents (sometimes even if it was the managements fault in the first place). Everyone here is stressed out all the time and you will quickly see why with the threat of immediate termination constantly looming over your head.
