Pros

Being in the cases with surgeons

Cons

- 80+ work weeks with no overtime pay - No PTO or pay out for PTO -24/7 on call - Zero Days off -Treated more like a fraternity than a career. - Could come home at 2am and be expected to be back at the hospitals by 6am - Reps are “leading/managing” associates who have never been trained to lead or communicate properly in a corporate like atmosphere. Reps treat associates like a sports team in college who are the freshman scum. Expected to work ungodly hours and kiss the ground the reps walk on. Treated very disrespectfully -on average work 60 days straight before you can have a Sunday off but not really because your still expected to answer calls and be ready if they need you. Can’t drive the same car as your wife or go more than 50 miles away if you do happen to get one day off after at least 6 months of employment

Pros

I respect the company and what it does to help make drs lives easier with providing tools

Cons

Stryker was the worst place I ever worked. Upper management needs a lot of work. I watch the VP invite new employees in and treat them like a friend until a new person come in and then push the old one out. Never any security and you always have to watch your back. Sports Medicine could be great with a different management team.
