Pros

The pay is capped but good if you can hit plan. The benefits are very good. If you get a good manager and are skilled at playing political games, then you have a chance to get in line for management opportunities.

Cons

If you attain a sales goal, expect that to increas20-30% even if the national market placehas only increase 5-10%. Very politicaly driven. Company is becoming more known for paying physicians for their business (just google it).

Pros

The best company I’ve ever worked for.

Cons

Really can’t think of many. It’s heavily matrixed but that’s to be expected.

Pros

There are many non-traditional benefits that help with work life balance. The company’s brand and global reach are undeniable and reinforce the company’s compelling Mission.

Cons

People are expected to deliver above-average results with below-average processes. The stock’s performance has earned this pressure, but there is no obvious, quick path to improvement. Your experience in that corporate environment will depend on your supervisor either being a leader or a manager.
