Pros

Coworkers are great to work with

Cons

Senior management is a joke. All they care about is Quantity over Quality. Even though the company prides itself on it's focus on the quality, under current leadership that is a HUGE lie. If your machine is down, good luck actually having maintenance actually fix it, they'll most likely put a Band-Aid over the issue to get you back to producing. When you bring up an issue or improvement to work instructions, you get told that it takes too long to make the change and isn't worth the effort. Senior management doesn't care about the well-being nor the mental health of their workers so long as they are able to hit their daily committed goals. They will overwork anyone in the CEA without a second thought. Everyone's numbers goes up but they expect to keep OT at a minimum. If you don't have a good manager, good luck. This place is a ship bound to sink under the leadership it has now. If you decide to leave to pursue a different career, if you're not under a good manager, you'll most likely get fired before you complete your two weeks just so they don't have to give you an exit interview and rehire you for leaving them high strung.

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.
