Pros

Working in an industry such as this helps one to feel better about themselves because they are making a product that not only improves daily life for thousands of people, but it really does save help lives. There is a higher level of dignity and respect that is shown to each employee, even at the lowest levels of employment, then is found in many jobs.

Cons

Volital market. Products have been known to be pulled from production at a moments notice, at the employee level, because of adverse issues with the product in the field. Salary increases are minimal, not generally keeping up with the rate of inflation, in other words, don't expect to average 3 percent or higher for doing your job well and having an very good review.

Pros

Good pay. Good benefits. My coworkers who were at the same level as me were supportive.

Cons

Work environment was highly stressful and often unsustainable. Management created a culture where employees were frequently overworked, undervalued, and burned out. Communication from leadership was inconsistent and their expectations changed frequently. Work-life balance was very poor. Employee concerns did not get taken seriously unless they directly impacted company performance. When an HR compliant involving my supervisor was filed for his behavior with input from the majority of the team members, no meaningful action was taken beyond stating it was handled "per BSC policy". Opportunities for promotion and career advancement were limited. Employees who treated others poorly were often still rewarded or praised as long as performance metrics were met. There was a clear culture of favoritism and hierarchy, and employees outside of those circles could work above and beyond expectations without receiving recognition or advancement opportunities. In 2 years, there were 12 employees who were fired in a 10 person department.
