Pros

The only Medical company in Yorba Linda. Nice area right next to Costco

Cons

Horrible rush hour traffic both in the AM & PM. No new products; only derivatives. Many new products are on hold. Very few are moving forward. They cheat employees on PTO & they offer NO sick leave. They pay 4 weeks PTO but 0 sick leave. Other med co's pay 3 weeks PTO plus 2 weeks sick leave. Only 8 paid vacations a year, unlike a standard 11 paid holidays at other medical co's. No chance for advancement. You are lucky to get 1% raise a year. Many got NONE. Bonus is only 3% maximum. No H.R onsite at all. If someone gets booted out, there won't be an exit interview. If people have conflicts, HR rep will come from San Diego once a month.

Pros

There really aren't any. Incredibly toxic culture all the way down. BD used to be a great and supportive place to work but that is no more.

Cons

Very toxic culture. Management all the way down is either abusive or or flat out incompetent. We are told to essentially ignore our own code of conduct policies and ethics to the point where all qualified and competent performers have been run off by tyrant middle managers who can essentially do whatever they want or being saddled with the work of 3 people. You will not be valued here. The morale is at bottom and everyone is looking to leave the sinking ship.
