Pros
Our products improve people's lives. Many opportunities for growth. I love what I do and the team I work with. Great Products!
Cons
Far too much emphasis put on shareholders over employees. We are too lean as the top brass tries to cut resources to raise the stock price. Country is at full employment means folks are leaving for greener pastures. WAKE UP CEO!
Advice to Management
Hey Omar! We are the ones who built this company, not the shareholders. It should ALWAYS be; Patients First, Employees Second, Shareholders a distant third. Why did we not see a single penny of the Trump tax cuts? I bet you did.

Great intern support at the Neurovascular site in Irvine, CA. Fantastic engineers and meaningful projects.
Cons
One of the smaller Medtronic sites, so interns must find their own housing with the provided stipend.
