Pros

Favorite part of merging with Medtronic is the holiday party and bringing the patients in to tell their stories.

Cons

There is not training and advancement opportunities in certain areas of the company. Having a position that serves other Covidien employees, the rudeness from other employees calling in is lacking and professionalism forgotten. A few direct managers do not encourage growth and will only converse with you if there is something negative, no support. Also half the company is stuck in the dinosaur age of technology.
