Great Company

Pros

I work with a great team of people. The company pays well and has great benefits.

Cons

No real growth opportunities to advance your career. They offer free training but extremely few stretch assignments. It’s not a fair process to obtain opportunities or new jobs. They would rather hire external candidates than promote from within. The diversity and inclusion program is strictly performative and provides no real value.

Pros

Company car, reputation, free swag

Cons

Fake diversity and inclusion, speaks negatively about anyone that leaves company, managers do not maintain confidentiality and are more concerned with their reputation than doing a good job or putting patients first, most employees are robots and don’t have a problem doing unethical things and if you go against that by doing the right thing, they penalize you, do not respond and accommodate for resources requested for success in field, unreasonable sales goals, unprofessional overall
