Pros

Location. New facility. Free lunch.

Cons

Favoritism, discrimination, low pay, poor management, low quality of life, and lack of departmental innovation are all words to sum up Arthrex. No protection. HR only sides with management. If you have concerns about management discriminating or playing favorites, good luck. Pay is low for industry and does not match the notoriously high cost of living in Naples. Managers do not respect your personal life. Expect to work overtime and not be compensated for it. They let people go on the fly and expect an already short staffed team to support work at the same rate. For how nice the facility is and all the money the founder gets to pocket as a private company, he does not care about quality of life for employees. Don’t believe the hype HR gives you during hiring process. If manager is of a different race, do not bother continuing with hiring process. Asians like Asians. Whites with Whites. Workplace is not equitable, fair, nor team-oriented. Speak up culture is non-existent. All teams work in silos and are not there to support you unless it benefits them. New employees are thrown into the fire on day 1. Little to no proper training provided. Managers are unable to innovate, delegate tasks, dismissive of feedback, and unable to see the big picture. They give you an excessive amount of tasks with no guidance and no date for when it’s due, then get angry at you when you do it in an order they don’t like, despite not providing key deliverable criteria. Growth does not exist at company. Many engineers have been stuck in same role for years with no opportunity to move upward. Politics wins over skills for promotion. Loudest person in room wins. Performance is not valued here, only tenure and adulation get you performance. Ideas are not accepted here. If you like following orders with no innovation, you’ll fit right in. If you want to innovate , Arthrex will break your spirit.

Pros

Weather, Benefits, free meals, opportunity for growth, just make sure you comply to Arthrex standards.

Cons

Bad management, from low level up! HR does nothing! Useless! If you go to HR you have a scarlet letter! Many sheep, many managers hired during times of lack of quality, experienced people to hire. A lot of favoritism to the sheep!! Sheep that should be fired are protected, and promoted! Inexperienced people promoted to supervisory, leadership, and other degreed positions the company grows so fast, they don’t belong. No development by management in place other than courses. In fighting of management personnel in department and other departments. Pay is mediocre and cost of living high. Not worth a move from the north. Huge growth in company sales, with lack of quality employees equals overwhelming, overworked! If a job opportunity comes up in another department it’s usually already spoken for. If you want to apply to a different department, you have to tell your manager you are applying. If that manager doesn’t like you, you can bet the hiring manager is notified and other managers too. Why bother trying to grow? The comments from other reviews is true about cameras at all facilities! Little brother is watching you!!

Pros

Free lunch Monday-Thursday Free health insurance for employee, if you submit the very nosy wellness form 3 weeks of vacation Vacation for family every 5 years

Cons

Fear and intimidation is used by management and HR all the time. Don't even tell HR about anything about a manager because they will take the manager's side blindly. Also, don't bring any issues to HR because HR will start investigating you and call you into intimidation meetings. It's HR policy and it's destroying morale. Lower salary compared to similar jobs nearby Start as "engineer" even if you have over 10 years of experience and even a master's degree. You have to work at Arthrex for many many years to become a "Senior Engineer" even if you were one at your last job. Don't count on moving up, since there is almost nowhere to move up to at Walnut. Oppressive environment, not open to any ideas to save the company money or improve anything. Politics rule and the wrong people get jobs they aren't qualified for. 2 brothers rule by fear and intimidation at ACI. Corporate doesn't do anything.
