Cons

There are no cons that I see working at Boston Scientific! I always joke that there is no reason why I would ever leave :)

Pros

Pay is excellent and there is a good 401k match. Generally I was surrounded by many high quality, assertive, and talented, people who I remain friends with today.

Cons

Was kind of cliquey and an old boys club when I was there; and who you were friends with definitely mattered in your advancement. No pension plan (unlike competitors J&J and Medtronic) and generally they don't display a lot of concern about their employee's career development ...it's more about driving the number.

Advice to Management

Shift the culture from aggressive and purely results based, to a little more employee, customer, and community based.
