Pros

This is the only "diversified" division of Stryker with a sales force made up of 50% or more of women but not the true definition of diversity.

Cons

Be prepared for a daily onslaught of challenges that include production issues in every franchise, end users complaints, customer service fails, and order fulfillment fails. Management that takes a passenger seat and may actually take steps to ensure that you fail if you don't fit their mold. Managers function as bosses and are inept at managing people properly. Some named "untouchable" and serve no actual function as it relates to your business. Perceived as a joke/garbage collectors by other divisional counterparts. You'll be selling yesterday's technology, up to 2 generations old in some cases, for a limited time only. "New" or additional products take forever and almost always are delayed by several months or indefinitely. If a soul sucking, life draining, insufferable and intolerant work environment is right for you, please apply today!

Pros

The individual contributors you work with are fantastic people and the products we work on are really interesting and have significant impacts on patient care.

Cons

Sports Medicine has unfortunately changed from a dynamic and collaborative group to one being led by toxic leadership. Rather than working together and trusting team members, they now have an in group and out group. If you’re in the in group, you can say anything you want without being questioned and be automatically trusted even when your track record says otherwise. If you’re in the out group and your message doesn’t align with what the leadership wants to hear, then you are automatically wrong and not to be trusted.
