Pros

The company is driven to be the best. It is complex and allows for great experience. The products are interesting and the feeling of helping people can not be replaced.

Cons

Medtronic, like many public companies, is very focused on what Wall Street wants. This is understandable, but the employees are the ones who suffer to meet these expectations. Current HR leadership seems to be taking the company in a different (and disappointing) direction when it comes to employee benefits.

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.
