Pros

Henry Schein is the largest company on Long Island that offers a reasonable work-life balance. Your job is pretty secure unless you get on the bad side of an executive.

Cons

There are very limited advancement opportunities with only a handful of "chosen ones" that get promoted. The leaders of the organization have a tendency to maintain status quo when there are issues by telling you what you want to hear, and then taking no action. No matter how stellar your annual review is, you will most likely receive a 2.5% raise. If you are a motivated, intelligent and hard working individual who wants a defined career path, HS is not the company for you. But if you want to do the same thing every day, do not want to be challenged, and become a "lifer," you should apply.

Collaborative environment, great people, and internal growth. The biggest asset here is the people, everyone is approachable and willing to help a peer.

Cons

Like any healthy organization, there can sometimes be fast paced shifts in strategy or priorities, but communication is generally transparent as changes happen.
