Pros

Autonomy to run territory without micromanaging Above average benefits for industry Exceptional budgets for conducting business, no spending cuts Most who sell for Covidien are people I would hang out with outside of work

Cons

Total earning ability leaves a lot to be desired and below average Comp structure is confusing and very general to entire US, not territory specific Significant lack of innovation in product development and acquisition
