Pros

Focused on success, clinical efficacy of products and being massively trained on the ins/outs of each ~~

Cons

A lot of 1st time surgical device reps - coming from ADP, copiers, and such brought an arrogant attitude at times. The seasoned reps with a company or 2 prior on resume where more pleasant to work with and compete against.
