Pros

I am an ex Comfort Medical employee. Please see below as to why I felt it necessary to write a review on the Glassdoor site.

Cons

Over a year ago Coloplast acquired Comfort Medical, LLC in which I worked. Comfort Medical employees were informed in March 2017 that we would become Coloplast employees starting on January 1, 2018. Many months later or the week before Thanksgiving Coloplast used a third party background screening company to screen employees presently employed at Comfort Medical. Approximately a month later and the last Friday of the year I was terminated and lost important health benefits days later on 12/31/2017 due to a failed criminal background check from almost 10 years ago. It was not taken into account that I disclosed this information about my background on my original application 4 years ago with Comfort Medical. My supervisor knew of the circumstances and that they were not of a violent nature, or stealing or anything at all that would compromise Comfort Medical. It was decided by several supervisors to give me an opportunity to prove myself. It was not taken into account that I was an outstanding employee with excellent performance evaluations done each year that included one promotion becoming a team leader/supervisor. I dedicated 4 years to Comfort Medical that included many projects and played key roles in developing processes. I was never called by Coloplast HR to discuss my attributes during my tenure with Comfort Medical or an opportunity to explain the circumstances around my background . I was just abruptly fired.

Pros

Nice building, nice location, great furniture in lobby. Pretty solid cafeteria. Rewarding work that helps people who need it.

Cons

Management (Director level and above) seem to care less about anyone below them. It's a rat race to keep from being the next one in the target. Management don't seem to value work:life balance and if you work for someone who doesn't have a family, good luck on being allowed to enjoy yours.

Pros

Secure as so many people have left recently, due to the horrendous managment

Cons

Very much a man club - huge issues between salaries between men and females in management. As such bandings aren't advertised - but people talk so are aware. Myself as a more expereinced female earns 50% less than my male colleague in the same role. Issues are increased due to different people being on different bonus amounts depending on whether you play golf with the vice president or not.
