Pros

-Clean and beautiful building -Kitchen fully stocked

Cons

-The culture of the company changed, It is very secretive and Divisive -Salaries not competitive (Management said because of benefits, which were downgraded without notice) -Lack of performance reviews. You don’t know if you are performing as expected and you don’t get any bonuses or pay increase. -Food is provided, but they brag about it and keep bringing it up to the employees constantly. -You accumulate PTO but if you dare to take it, you won’t here the end of it. They don’t expect a life-work balance. -Initial team was great but now, there is no sense of teamwork. -People got fired because they dare to express their opinions. If you work here you basically have to be a “Yes-men” with the CEO and CFO -Lack of management, you don’t know who reports to who. Basically everyone reports to CEO -After I left, my friend (who still works at the company) says that they talk badly about former employees. I find this very disrespectful and unprofessional. -Political, Racial and Religious comments (which in any other environment would be inappropriate), are constantly made by management.

Surgenex has always paid for 100% of health/dental/vision premiums for all employees and their families. 15 days of PTO are given to all employees annually. Additionally, Surgenex has a 6% 401k match which is vested on the 1st day of employment. The company invests in highly skilled people with industry experience, and has minimal turnover in staff. Pay increases and promotions are merit based.

Pros

healthcare, thats all the pros they offer

Cons

If you want no job security and management who criticizes everything even down to a neutral facial expression, then this is the perfect place to work! They have had layoffs over 2x a year and will terminate you just for existing. Was "let go"/fired due to "low performance" even though exceeding daily goals, WHILE PREGNANT mind you , I still managed to pull my weight in a leadership position and they couldnt back up the "low performance" statement with any proper documentation or metrics. There is nothing enjoyable about this job but the pay, but even that doesnt make it worth it. The managers are incapable, completely unknowledgeable about day to day functions, dont know how to manage or lead. They do not trust you, have terrible communication skills, they are incompetent and god forbid if you stand up for yourself, then you are labeled as emotional. Please for the love of god, there are other places to work.
