Pros

Experience working in surgery, learning endoscopy instruments, and seeing the day to day operations of an OR. I personally made a lot of good relationships, especially in sterile processing, since so much of the work is done in their cleaning, sterilizing, and wrapping cameras, scopes, and sets. Make connections outside of Stryker. Help out and work with reps with other companies so when a position opens up you'll be first in line! Don't wait 2+ years to stay within Stryker and get a blessing from your sales rep/manager. Not worth it!

Cons

If you end up working at a facility with a dbag sales rep you won't have fun. Mine was constantly on my case even though he was not my manager. He had an ego and complex that made me cringe anytime he was around. My managers were ok, but Stryker creates this suck-up culture where you just kiss a** all the time and never feel comfortable to air grievances like the horrible pay and lack of opportunities. Long days, long commutes, no reimbursements for gas.

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.
