Pros

Some of the best reasons to work at ADC are: job security, opportunity for advancement, compensation and benefits, and the chance to work in an industry where your work directly impacts quality of life for diabetic patients. At ADC, employees understand the importance of their work.

Cons

Location in Alameda, CA is not ideal. Campus is drab and uninspiring. Organization tends to work in silos and not collaborate well across functional areas. While this is not atypical of large companies, poor collaboration and communication are major challenges for this company. Senior management should take steps to address these challenges in the company culture.
