Pros

I'm not sure I know of any. Good Food options in the complex?

Cons

After surpassing a billion dollar revenue an announcement was made that3/4s of the inside sales department was being laid off and jobs would all be outsourced to other countries. This was after Dexcom hired a bunch of people knowing they were going to lay those same people off as this is morally incomprehensible. Our commission was scraped off the top in 2018 to help generate that billion dollar revenue. Now that most people will be laid off, we will be doing the job of 4 departments with the pay of one and the commission of non because we won't have time to work in our pipelines. No one on the inside gets promoted to the field... Ok, one person in six years has. I came to Dexcom to sell and I've become a rep who takes customer service calls and gets yelled at by patients and management all day. There's no preparation in the choices the executives make andthe consequences are felt by employees. There is greed and a lack of respect. Outside sales gets a trip to an island for meeting goals, inside gets a trip to Palm springs which doesn't accurately reimburse for the amount of effort and commitment from our team. It's an elitest company and its not sustainable to use your employees until they have nothing to give. Dexcom, Kevin, you should be ashamed of your choices.
