Pros

Good opportunities to learn new things, if you are interested. Lots of capital investment over the last few years. Many great people and very few not so nice ones.

Cons

Too much doing stuff just for the sake of saying it was done. Unstable future with the recent acquisition by Medtronics.

Pros

I worked here for 6 months on their rebranding project. The computers were fast, the full time were nice if not a little bit burned out. They had a wonderful cafeteria with looks of cooked to order healthy food choices.

Cons

The work was a bit tedious and dull. People are busy working and there does not seem to be much to motivate them other than money. If going to a rather dull job, without much of a team or family feel is what you're looking for this would be a good fit.
