The Surgical Solution Group is a growing division with a strong pipeline of innovative products and technologies.

Pros

It was challenging with constant daily demands and putting out fires, but it was very rewarding in that I learned a lot faster there than I would at another medical devices company.

Cons

Putting out fires made it hard to make forward progress
