Business Outlook

Pros

Great company, HIGH Integrity. This is a company that does right by it's people. Increased talent pool over the last few years has led to innovation throughout the org. The company has gotten younger in important areas and is better positioned to deal with the influx of a younger workforce down the line. A very healthy and profitable org in a volatile workforce. Employees who come here from competitors (Stryker, Boston Sci, Medtronic etc) are shocked by our org's ethics.

Cons

You will not have a slow period at KARL STORZ. We keep our people like busy bees.

Good Company - Terrible Sales Leadership

Business Outlook

Pros

Great people that given the freedom to do their job could make this a truly fantastic place to work. Culture is better than most other large medical device companies despite sales leadership.

Cons

Sales leadership is terrible and does not understand medical device sales. Slow to market with products compared to competitors. Weak or no contracts with major GPO's.

Pros

- Company looks good on a resume - Their products are high quality

Cons

- Terrible onboarding process - Low employee moral due to poor management - Disciplined over matters that most employers wouldn't - Can't make any decisions and I literally mean any decisions without management approval. (Even the toppings on pizza for monthly lunch and learns)
