Pros

You will learn how not to create a successful working environment. Use your experience with this culture to find and build a different culture. Success can be had by being honest, supportive, hard working, and technically adept.

Cons

Disrespect, incompetence rewarded, living with failures/fireldrills/end of word issues every day, honesty and openness is looked at as weakness, totally ineffective leadership, so much more. Stryker Ortho has little in house technical expertise. It's all with contractors and supplier. People do survive there, yet it's typically at the expense of others. In particular Stryker Ortho is the division you want to avoid.

Pros

I respect the company and what it does to help make drs lives easier with providing tools

Cons

Stryker was the worst place I ever worked. Upper management needs a lot of work. I watch the VP invite new employees in and treat them like a friend until a new person come in and then push the old one out. Never any security and you always have to watch your back. Sports Medicine could be great with a different management team.
