Pros

As with any large place of employment, who your boss is, is what determines your work environment and satisfaction more than company policies. The company as a whole seems to care about their employees' well being and conducts surveys, such as the 360 survey, to help make for better and more satisfied employees. They have decent benefits and occasional Friday Happy Hour, which is nice.

Cons

If you're the type of person that enjoys working in an aggressive environment, you'll probably enjoy working at Stryker Fremont. Most employees are in their 20's and 30's, aggressive, and motivated. Coming from a medical device company which operated differently, I didn't like this style very much, but it's a matter of preference. Drilling down to low to mid level management, there was a lot of politics at play and some unrest going on. This had to do with shifting responsibilities and it made for a not so pleasant work environment. This does not apply to all areas of the company though.

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.
