      Pros

      People are great, very hard working and dedicated. I rarely hear "no" or that's not my job. People understand the mission and move with a pace to get things done, but still with quality. Great atmosphere and nice mix of new employees + seasoned folks. This is one of those companies where the product you're working on really makes a difference in diabetic patient's lives. You feel it everyday that what you're doing matters.

      Cons

      Well, it's very fast-paced and ever changing as our business is growing so rapidly as CGM adoption climbs. You have to be willing to put in the time and effort, but you will be rewarded in many ways. If you don't like change and you want to do the same thing everyday, it's not a good fit for you. This job/company will challenge you every day, but you'll learn so much. I know I have in my 8 months.

      Pros

      Great company, growing super fast Work with REALLY smart and competent people Exciting and interesting work Product truly helps people and changes their lives for the better Exciting to see the impact we make in peoples lives I've been in Med Device for 15 years, and this is the best company I've worked for by far!

      Cons

      Going through typical growing pains of going from a small company to mid-sized/large company. Parking & office space is painful / Telecommuting Flexibility would be appreciated Need to take serious look at comp packages to stay competitive as RSU's dwindle. Working long hours doesn't always equate to a better employee. Evaluate based on outcomes and work-product.

      Pros

      The Company is growing at a fast rate and this opens up many opportunities for advancement Working on medical devices to help empower patients with Diabetics is a very rewarding experience Majority of the team are very passionate about their work and this creates a great culture especially for those who are looking to excel in their careers

      Cons

      The fast pace environment often means some issues get swept under the rug and take months to be addressed The current size of our facilities is already too small for the rapid growth of the company No 2nd Shift coffee shop!
