Great company but linear growth

Global specialist

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great work culture and fantastic environment. The inclusivity is undeniable and teamwork is encouraged across the globe.

Cons

- Poor structure post transformation - A little play of favoritism based on region (common excuse is time difference) - Little to zero growth structure for certain roles (remote/individual contributors) - Constant change in middle management - Structural gap between teams which make processes and deliverables hard to measure

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- You will work with very talented, bright people who are working on healthcare solutions for the present and future. - Great pay, excellent benefits, professional environment, and mostly good management.

Cons

- It is a large company, so bureaucracy is real and change can be slow (especially if you are accustomed to a start-up environment). - Like most large companies, there are occasional restructuring / RIF cycles.

Business Outlook

Pros

Base pay is very good

Cons

Culture is abysmal, very goal orientated with little/no job satisfaction Despite being "class leading", purse strings are being squeezed, forcing remote people to become silo'd and have very little development opportunities. Vastly different atmosphere being a field based employee vs office based.
