Vantaggi

Medical Device industry truly is a great industry to work in compared to other industries outside of health care. There are those who frame med tech companies differently, but it is truly a great industry to work in, knowing that you are contributing toward building products that extend people's lives and improve people's quality of life. Boston Scientific is a diversified medical device play that have strong products in many therapies. It is a large, international companies. If you are aggressive, you will get opportunity to work in a variety of job functions and maybe even different geographies. If you're not aggressive, it may be a good pay check play as long as you look busy.

Svantaggi

Boston Scientific is a very large company, it has made a number of acquisitions in the past years. The culture and systems within the different parts of the company are still not well integrated. Depending on which business unit you work for, you may have a vastly different experience. The bureaucracy and inefficient processes make the company feel like an even bigger company than it really is. Many support functions are poor and take a long time to respond (HR, IT, Legal). Being a large company, many parts of the function also tend to be political and defensive - not the greatest when it comes to driving innovation for new products.

Vantaggi

Good pay. Good benefits. My coworkers who were at the same level as me were supportive.

Svantaggi

Work environment was highly stressful and often unsustainable. Management created a culture where employees were frequently overworked, undervalued, and burned out. Communication from leadership was inconsistent and their expectations changed frequently. Work-life balance was very poor. Employee concerns did not get taken seriously unless they directly impacted company performance. When an HR compliant involving my supervisor was filed for his behavior with input from the majority of the team members, no meaningful action was taken beyond stating it was handled "per BSC policy". Opportunities for promotion and career advancement were limited. Employees who treated others poorly were often still rewarded or praised as long as performance metrics were met. There was a clear culture of favoritism and hierarchy, and employees outside of those circles could work above and beyond expectations without receiving recognition or advancement opportunities. In 2 years, there were 12 employees who were fired in a 10 person department.
