Pros

Zimmer has the best product on the market. The people at Zimmer are extremely willing to help you succeed professionally.

Work long hours, 10-12 hour days. Pay was below average. Few other of the employees were lazy, and caused low productivity to others.

Pros

Decent pay and benefits. They pay respect to internal employees for open positions.

Cons

It is a very aggressive, competitive, and political environment. There are not many opportunities for women, as it is a very male-dominated environment. There are not many women in management as well.
