Pros

Work-life balance Good Management Good Training Programs Growth Opportunity Decent Cafeteria food with subsidized cost. This is good place to start if one is looking to get into medical device company.

Cons

As every company has its' share of issues/problems, BD is no different. However, BD is always striving to look for better opportunity and improve their processes.One of the issues is that BD needs to get rid of people who aren't really adding any value and are there to do below minimum of their job requirement.

Pros

Salaryies are OK, benefits are good but slowly eroding, good products and market position, room to grow your career, (but not as much as there used to be).

Cons

Management is top heavy with VPs and do-nothings, outsourcing is becoming an issue. HR is useless and becoming more so. Lack of managerial courage at most levels.
