Learning opportunities overshadowed by poor work-life balance and favoritism - Product Development Engineer Midwest Interventional Systems Employee Review

Unhealthy work-life balance, employees are expected to work after hours or on weekends to keep up with unrealistic commitments. Rampant favoritism drives promotions, bonuses, and leniency. Disconnected upper management goes on expensive retreats to rental properties with catered meals and expensed alcohol while the employees lose benefits from their hiring packages with no renegotiations.
