Pros

Fascinating products (gas turbines for power plants), rather well organized engineering activities, data sources and controls teams interaction.

Cons

Old school rigid management. In comparison with other companies, high (x2 or more) salary gaps profits for hierarchy.

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.
