Vantaggi
medtronic is very well respected by our hospital and physician customers. The amount of training that is provided is first class. If you put in the time and effort you will be rewarded with pay increases,promotions, and stock options.
Svantaggi
The CRM division has had a hiring freeze for over a year. It takes at least 14 months to train a highly motivated new employee. We can't seem to be able to keep employees in our district for more than 2 years. They all get burned out and quit or go and work for the competition. The company was built on non-revenue service. This worked for a long time, but with the flat and negative market growth in devices the service expectations keep going up but the hospitals keep demanding more and more price cuts. Medtronic has not offered solutions or policies to help support the field with this problem.
