Pros

Decent pay and Decent coworkers.

Cons

Routine layoffs. Unstable management style. No clear objective nor goal other than money, money, money. Ran like a private equity shop. Constantly dealing with upper lever mistakes and missteps. Oh, and Constant LEGAL ISSUES...don't take my word on it. Just search Zimmer lawsuits.
