Pros

Opportunity to network, job security if you're not planning to move up, the name Stryke looks good on resumes (+) things about this role: 1) a sense of purpose: you make sure the equipment runs as smoothly in the operating room and troubleshoot + learning what goes into sterile processing. 2) the role gives you a chance to get an exposure to the medical devices industry, especially if you're planning to go into med sales (networking with sales reps, surgeons, nurses, etc)

Cons

Very difficult to climb up the ladder from Onsite, Even as an internal candidate you still have to go through 5-6 rounds of Gallup (-): Frat/sorority house MANAGEMENT mentality with terrible ethics who have no idea what they're doing and don't know how to lead. Internal mobility heavily based on popularity and looks rather than performance and experience. There is more to life than being a former D1 athlete...

Pros

The individual contributors you work with are fantastic people and the products we work on are really interesting and have significant impacts on patient care.

Cons

Sports Medicine has unfortunately changed from a dynamic and collaborative group to one being led by toxic leadership. Rather than working together and trusting team members, they now have an in group and out group. If you’re in the in group, you can say anything you want without being questioned and be automatically trusted even when your track record says otherwise. If you’re in the out group and your message doesn’t align with what the leadership wants to hear, then you are automatically wrong and not to be trusted.
