Pros

Awesome views, campus, and people that are not Senior Level Management.

Cons

Once again mid level management is treated as if they are of no value. Lead the teams of worker bees but slam us on performance. When in reality sales are strong, on time delivery is in the high 90th percentile, and Op Com is getting their bonuses and money.

Pros

The best attribute about working at Zimmer Spine in Austin is the tight-knit group of employees. We have a great team of talented individuals who strive to produce quality products for the ultimate satisfaction of knowing their efforts will help to improve someone's quality of life.

Cons

Zimmer Spine could use a bit of upper management cleanup. The current leadership team has elected to close the Austin facility and eliminate the livelihood of 100+ employees. Not unlike what Zimmer did in the early 2000 when it purchased Sulzer Orthopedics and within a few years transferred operations out of state.
