Pros

Work/life balance and flexible work environments are hard to beat! The flexibility of time and place, the trust managers have in you to complete your tasks on YOUR schedule, and PTO are important. Inspiring mission of improving healthcare and better serving customers. Amazing people who are not only passionate about healthcare industry but also ambitious, creative, and willing to take risks. Office morale seems to have made a significant shift in the right direction from a year ago thanks to changes in upper management, collaborative environments, and opinions from US employees finally being considered.

Cons

New open floor plans are great for collaborating and bonding as a team but very distracting. Still very hierarchical at times and office politics abound. Employees generally rank their relationship with direct boss highly positive, but this doesn't translate to trust in other teams or the C-suite. Still work to be done to gain back employee trust after poor management in prior years.

Thank you for this balanced and thoughtful review. We're glad to hear that our benefits and investment in people are making a positive impact, those are commitments we take seriously. On the process feedback: Leadership is actively reviewing operational workflows, and the advice to listen more closely to employee feedback is something we're holding ourselves accountable to. If you're open to it, we'd encourage you to bring specific examples forward through your team or people and culture contacts. Change is most effective when it's grounded in the real experiences of the people doing the work, and that means you.

Pros

-Great company -Team has talented, experienced account managers and product experts who know the territory well

Cons

West team management is heavy on micromanagement and sets unrealistic territory targets without rep input — high turnover, and long tenure in company seems to shield this manager from accountability and growth
