Room for growth

Pros

The company has been rapidly expanding over the last few years which meant there was a lot of room for growth and development if you worked hard. They are actively working on increasing benefits for employees, such as offering subsidized legal services, discounted stock buy-in, free gym classes, etc. The people tend to be smart and hardworking. They are one of the best parts of working at Dexcom.

Cons

Culture is gradually shifting to become more corporate and less start-up. Tend to pay less than other companies.

Great product, amateur upper management

Pros

The product is terrific, and it really helps control diabetes. Most of the lower and middle level co-workers are great.

Cons

Clueless upper management. Direction changes every few months. Pay is below industry standards, especially for female employees. Huge salary gender gap. High employee turnover, probably because workload is very heavy. Poor communication between departments, and lots of jockeying for position between managers. Company really has only one product, and no interest in developing others. The product has a limited lifespan. Don't come here if you are looking for a stable, long term job.

Thank you for sharing your feedback on working at Dexcom. I'm glad you see the value of the product and its impact on our patients. However, I disagree with your assertion that our pay practices are influenced by gender. We regularly review total compensation so that our top performers are paid appropriately for their high performance. We are also committed to a diverse workforce, and take great efforts to ensure pay differences reflect appropriate work-related factors. And if you believe that there is a problem in your department we would certainly like to address it, and I would encourage you to get in touch with your HR representative to discuss.
