Pros

Free food for month end. Good "fresh out of college" job to get your foot in the door. That's about it.

Cons

The pay is terrible, and the bonus structure is a joke. With Medtronic being a multi -billion dollar Fortune 500 company that requires employees in this position to hold a Bachelor's degree, it is quite sad how little they are willing to compensate their employees. There is also favoritism, and the only way it seems that you will advance into a promotion is by gossiping all day with your supervisors. Little room for growth here even if you do get promoted. Get your experience, and then get out and find something that pays more and will offer room for growth, because you will not find that at Medtronic Diabetes. If you want to work long hours, receive little pay, and enjoy gossiping and forming cliques, then Medtronic Diabetes is the place for you.

Pros

The best company I’ve ever worked for.

Cons

Really can’t think of many. It’s heavily matrixed but that’s to be expected.

Pros

Generous, old-school benefits. Almost twice the PTO as other places I've worked, excellent healthcare, 401K matching, etc. Many high-quality colleagues and a generally mellow, polite business culture.

Cons

Multiple competing bureaucracies, internal consultancies, a computer-illiterate 'stakeholder' class with permission to disrupt anything, and perverse incentives driving waste.
