Really pick your manager and be prepared if you come from a good tech company
Pros
Great mission to help people improve their health, I believe Dexcom has great growth opportunities ahead of them, and people here generally believe in Dexcom's mission and want to achieve it. Remote work is nice, company benefits and pay are both decent.
Cons
If you are coming from a good tech company (FANG) - be prepared to face some reality shifts. Their IT is behind and it takes forever to get things done - the entire process is so broken and most IT partners take zero ownership of tasks that are assigned to them. They will keep telling you to submit a ticket for business needs, only to have the tickets lost in a million other tickets. As others mentioned, management here is bad. My current manager should never be a people-leader. There isn't any formal way to measure manager effectiveness, therefore, there is no good way for HR or high-level leadership to detect or correct such behaviors.
