Pros

Highly energetic co-workers. The company encourages building relationships and having a "best friend at work". There is opportunity to change roles, but only at your manager's discretion.

Cons

- There is absolutely NO work-life balance. Be prepared to be burned out. - The pay is the worst I've seen compared to the company's top competitors. - Management is COMPLETELY metrics driven. - Promotions are based on the relationships you build, not the work you do. - The turnover is extremely high. - Most employees have worked with the company for 3 years or less, and I don't see this changing anytime soon.

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.
