Pros

The surgical robotic system that they produce is amazing and is revolutionizing surgery. My coworkers were hard-working and enjoyable to be around. I met a lot of people who were very loyal to the company.

Cons

The management is horrible at communicating with the staff, especially giving feedback that will improve performance. The managers stay silent and then out of the blue they let you go when some constructive feedback would have helped. The management are completely unfair in their treatment of temporary employees. You typically have to stay a year or beyond to become a permanent employee. There are times when the overtime hours are mandatory

Pros

The product is incredible and the culture is conducive to hard working individuals who are passionate about their work, and mostly very friendly. The expectations are high but you can maintain a work/life balance if you take the responsibility to do so. No one will stop you from overworking, but they also won't make you to stay all night. The executive leadership is top-tier, and the engineering-minded CEO feels appropriate for a heavily technically-focused company (although I am biased as an engineer). The leadership is also very transparent compared to most as they will (despite some of these other reviews) correct their path and discuss the reasons for their decisions openly. I think 5+ years ago the mentality was more like a start-up, and is shifting towards that of a larger corporation, but that transition is natural for a growing company. The benefits and stock incentives are second to none (don't think gyms, free lunch, and nap-rooms like Google, think RSUs, options, and ESPP for all employees regardless of rank).

Cons

It's difficult to stay competitive in Silicon Valley with regards to compensation, and while the stock incentives are superb, I think certain areas of the company are learning the hard way that salaries are on the low side.
