Pros

Culture used to be better under previous C.E.O./leadership.

Cons

New leadership is all about cutting costs by hiring contactors. No efficiencies and lots of incompetent employees running around like headless chickens with no end results. Company politics is over the top and who you can align yourself within company impacts your career growth than your performance. Endless FDA recalls so I will be jumping ship soon before the company sinks.

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.
