Pros
Well-known, diverse company, with mostly good products. Stryker goes through a pretty deep recruiting process, which makes for a great group of lower level employees. Looks good on a resume for when you decide to jump to a better job.
Cons
Wages are not as competitive as they like to think. Some products are over engineered and focus shifts from quality to flashy and stylish. Company progress is geared almost exclusively to stock-holders, whatever looks good on paper to bring in more investors. Not much thought given to "investing" in employees anymore. Promotions are not based on performance or ability, but connections in management.
