Pros

Top Notch leadership programs. Great pay but would probably get paid more for same job some place else. Lots of networking opportunities through the various affinity groups within company. Chance to travel internationally.

Cons

Work long hours, especially if you are at the top. In spite of lots of talk about work/life balance, it is difficult to achieve it. Performance review is so long and complex you have to go to meetings in order to make sure you grasp the concept and do it right.

Pros

My first job after college and my internship was a great experience. I learned a lot about medical devices and the medical device industry, and I even got promoted to site leader pretty quickly.

Cons

My training was nonexistent; I learned everything from medical device service manuals. In my region, a billion-dollar company offered no bonuses or decent pay, and the management was micromanaging and horrible.
