R&D gone down hill

Engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Pay, benefits, making a difference in patient outcomes

Cons

The company culture used to be amazing and has slowly gone down hill with the change of CTO and senior leadership team within R&D. Nepotism is rampant with the CTO and his cronies as it's not what you do, its who you know that matters. Don't fall for unlimited PTO, they work you till exhaustion so you can never take.

Business Outlook

Pros

Pros- High quality equipment, nice offices that are well stocked, good health benefit options, friendly co workers, nice holiday parties

Cons

Surprisingly immature in defined business processes, constant product name changes on top of new products released that are not quite ready for GA, management does just that, no true leadership or forward thinking except at the executive level. Forget about having a life, you're expected to complete ridiculous amounts of work and be available 24/7. Unlimited PTO is a joke. HR is completely inept in helping you with your "concerns". The Sales department is the only one that is compensated handsomely.
