Pros

The opportunity to help people stay active and flexible. Enhancing the quality of life for people with debilitating spine disorders.

Cons

They can not keep good leadership team members long term. This has stifled their progress over the past ten years.

Great meaningful career -- sad to see the direction of the company.

Business Outlook

Pros

Meaningful work: Everyone in the organization has a positive impact on people's lives. Great products, made by dedicated employees. Great service provided by true professionals.

Cons

Senior management has no background in orthopedics. "GE" management style discounts the relationship factor in the orthopedic business. You can't take out the bottom 10-20% every year without huge losses. Current top 3 to 4 mangement levels do not have a clue.
