Pros

-Technology is incredible and refined. -experience being a partner to surgeons and not just a widget rep. -great CEO and technical/engineering side of business

Cons

Where to begin: - Upper commercial leaders are moronic yes men/women who are isolated from any real customer interaction. Intuitive has become a dumb bro culture like Stryker. -autonomy that defined the job is going away. You are surveilled and evaluated based upon SalesForce. -Despite what we tell ourselves, the vast majority of hospital executives do not like working with Intuitive but have been forced to because we are the only ones in the segment. -Say the right things, do 5@5 and you will get promoted.

Pros

* High quality and interesting engineering products/projects which meaningfully improve people's lives and health * Competitive compensation, particularly in the healthcare technology sector * Highly qualified and intelligent employees who are great to work with * Good benefits and perks: nice cafeterias, frequent corporate sponsored events, "collegial" feel * Programs and support for career advancement and training (conferences, selective corporate programs, career coaching, etc) * High ownership environment: sink or swim

Cons

* Intense and unreasonable (changing) targets which are not adequately supported (managerially, financially, and logistically) * Questionable ethics (with regards to employee evaluations, expectations and relations): works very well for individuals with a certain personality -- highly optimistic, "yes sir", done matters more than whether it was done well, those who are highly confident (ie those who do not take personal accountability) * Significant barriers for career advancement & leveling
