Pros

Dexcom provides fair pay for the position, and for the most part management is pretty nice. Plenty of overtime opportunities available for people who enjoy working. It's a beautiful office, and a great location. The other employees are very nice.

Cons

The schedule is VERY draining. Most new hires will work 5 days a week, with Saturday mandatory. You will likely get 1 week day off, either Wednesday, or Thursday, along with your Sunday. Bonuses are extremely rare, unless you're the #1 performer in your department, you can forget any bonus. Many of the managers have minimal experience and either none, or very little college completed. There is almost no room to grow upwards, unless you start out as a manager. PTO and Sick is very minimal - you gain 4 hours of PTO per pay period, 8 hours per month. You have 5 sick days to use for the WHOLE year. This is pathetic compared to other corporate offices.

Pros

Camaraderie, team mentality, it's good if you are looking for a stable place to do a good job and have solid income. You can't have the "it's not my job" mentality to be successful at Dexcom.

Cons

As everyone says, Parking is horrible. HR is a bureaucratic nightmare at times.

Thank you for sharing your feedback on life at Dexcom, especially since you've been here for over 3 years. I was sorry to hear that you feel HR is a a "bureaucratic nightmare", but if you have ideas for improvement I am always open to receiving and sharing them.
