Pros

Great company to work for. In terms of the Diabetes division, growth and advancement seems positive. Virtually unlimited overtime as long as you can speak to the work you are doing and your performance substantiates the efforts. Career advancement is possible but you have to play the part and observe the political game.

Cons

Commission as DTA is a joke in comparison to territory counterparts (.169% of sale price to be exact). This typically comes out to about 7 dollars per pump sold.The DTA to DTC salary is backwards, which management seems to acknowledge but does nothing about. Management tells DTA's not to be motivated by money even though we are in a sales environment.

Pros

Generous, old-school benefits. Almost twice the PTO as other places I've worked, excellent healthcare, 401K matching, etc. Many high-quality colleagues and a generally mellow, polite business culture.

Cons

Multiple competing bureaucracies, internal consultancies, a computer-illiterate 'stakeholder' class with permission to disrupt anything, and perverse incentives driving waste.
