Pros

None at this point except the feeling of working at Medtronic (or what it used to be)

Cons

Just came here to echo other people’s reviews. All the cons mentioned are unfortunately true and well alive in our god awful culture now. C suite and executives keep shuffling high paying positions amongst themselves or keep leaving. Geoff needs to be FIRED!!!!!! The company performance, culture, and stock keeps declining and his pay keeps rising; while all other employees are evaluated horribly with a review system that nobody understands or wants to change but yet is ‘improved’ and implemented every year. I really miss Omar HR is also not your friend. They don’t even like to pretend. Ethics and integrity is a JOKE! Anyone who raises their voice is either silenced or gets a target painted on their back.

Pros

The best company I’ve ever worked for.

Cons

Really can’t think of many. It’s heavily matrixed but that’s to be expected.

Pros

Generous, old-school benefits. Almost twice the PTO as other places I've worked, excellent healthcare, 401K matching, etc. Many high-quality colleagues and a generally mellow, polite business culture.

Cons

Multiple competing bureaucracies, internal consultancies, a computer-illiterate 'stakeholder' class with permission to disrupt anything, and perverse incentives driving waste.
