Pros

The benefits are great, good quality and compliance culture. A forward thinking company, being part of Medtronic now looks to be more of the same with new opportunity for growth.

Cons

It is of course a corporate, world wide company and that comes with the procedures and rules that sometimes can be a little confining, especially for hourly employees. From my experience with the growth of the company over the last 16 years, it has gotten a little management top-heavy, but maybe I just notice that more working in a relatively small plant.

Pros

The job was a good job. Excellent managers and supervision. The hours we worked allowed us to miss traffic. Overall it was an excellent experience working for covidien.

Cons

I am having trouble coming with very many cons. Maybe at times the hours expected to work could be long, but that typically is part of the job.
