Pros

Benefits Package and Workspace is better than average. Very nice open office.

Cons

The WORST middle management and supervisor micromanagement ever experienced. No trust to follow through to completion without constant babysitting and condescending comments and emails. Over the top expectations for hours worked set by those that work up to 16 hours per day (including weekends, paid holidays and late into the night) schedules without batting an eye, and cannot possibly be met by all who have other obligations. Those that don't are not favored or rewarded equally. This is the norm. Obvious favoritism in many groups leading to unfair treatment of those not seen as burning the candle at both ends. Those not choosing to live at work are "not as reliable, not team oriented and not thinking of the company first". HR is almost useless as they are very good friends with most middle and upper managers and go so far as to spend social time with many of them regularly, which makes a very non neutral party for employees needing to get guidance re: issues and concerns. Many hardworking people have been pushed out and not listened to with valid complaints and concerns about leadership and harmful styles that have left deep scars on many teams throughout the company. Alot of turnover. So many bosses, cannot possibly keep track. Bully type scare tactics (mgmnt)/ sideways backhanded comments used to intimidate and push down those that do speak up or have something to say. Obvious tension and underlying issues between supervisors/ management personnel, which trickles down daily to general staff and makes for a very uncomfortable day to day environment. Those who have worked here 5 to 10 years +, still no pay increases or rewards after so much tenure, and many reasons given as to why there is no money. Seems to be that in order to succeed, you need to behave like a school aged child and employ tactics such as backstabbing and the like. This behavior is not discouraged in many groups and runs rampant. At times it's exhausting. It ceases to get better now that Fuji has taken over. We are all just a number and can be replaced at any time

Pros

Sonosite deserves credit for creating and popularizing the POCUS category in healthcare.

Cons

The technology is outdated, and innovation has largely stalled. Many projects are poorly planned and consistently miss delivery timelines, sometimes by years. Compensation and benefits are well below market, especially given the expectations and workload. Leadership is highly unprofessional and lacks strategic vision. Decision-making often feels reactive and disconnected from reality. Promotions and opportunities are driven by personal relationships, not performance or impact, which is demoralizing for high performers. There is little genuine care for employees. Morale is low, and trust in leadership is weak. HR functions more as an extension of executive power than as employee support—often perceived as protecting leadership rather than people. Routine layoffs have become part of the culture, creating constant insecurity and fear, even among strong contributors.
