Pros

It’s a century old medical manufacturing company; solid top of the line products with strong reputation. The company continues to grow in value. You can feel good about the company’s mission. Decent pay.

Cons

As with any job, good leadership is critical to employee morale and satisfaction. Unfortunately I currently have a very poor leader. He is good at managing, actually micromanaging...to the point of crushing innovation and morale...He does not inspire or motivate our team, but rather creates an environment of paranoia and self-doubt.

Pros

Pay is standard for the industry.

Cons

An incredibly high level of turnover of marketing staff ! Senior management does not support marketing or care about their customers. All your work efforts are spent on internal politics and trying to convince leadership that marketing matters. The company does not believe in social media. You will spend all your time in training - but never be allowed to use these skills.

None - Not a company to work for

Cons

Nepotism, favoritism, inept management, HR dept. is run by incompetent employees. Management uses temp agencies to fulfill staff to avoid paying benefits and decent wages. Serious compliance issues in complaint dept. Unethical quality directors who like to brush serious quality issues under the rug. FDA needs to visit and close the doors of Tempe office. Over 300 lawsuits for their products received every month, however they continue to sell the product.
