Vantaggi

Flexible work schedule. This has helped me on a number of occasions when I needed to deal with family issues. Lots of great exposure to new technology.

Svantaggi

Boston Scientific strives to be an average company. There seems to be an strong desire to do what the market is doing and to not stray far from that. In the long run, I think that hurts our ability to bring great things to the market. I suppose that's simply the way big business runs. Having worked for smaller companies that were more employee centric, this seems to be a bad route to take. Training was almost non-existent for many years due to the fact that we were not allowed to travel.

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.
