      Pros

      I liked working for Covidien knowing that the products we make greatly affect the lives of so many people. The location of the company is also a plus.

      Cons

      There was nothing negative to say about the company other than the fact that this particular facility will be shutting down within the year.

      Management not trained to be managers A lot of passive, aggressive behavior Lack of training for the role Too much "old-guard" thinking. New ideas are not appreciated You need to "get in line" or get out. Company grew too fast
