Good Company - Terrible Sales Leadership

CEO approval

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.

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Possible 4 day work week Great product idea that is dying fast Great engineers from good schools almost all who joined as fresh grad

Cons

Engineer has no voice to supervisor domination Too much control from mother ship in Germany, supervisors cannot be reviewed by the team they oversee, so they tend to be very hostile and condescending and still get away Human resources has no power Yes men with zero management experience and bad people skills and communication are given preference so that they inturn are yes-men to their boses Extreme micromanagement. This is not true for all groups. But if you are unlucky you can land in a very tough spot.
