Pros

Stryker is a great place to work that fairly pays their employees because they have very high standards for the work that is done. If you are a high achiever, you will be successful

Cons

Very high standards are excellent when you have guidance, but if the vision and purpose are lacking, it is hard to know what to execute on

Business Outlook

Pros

We are solving big problems with highly collaborative teams. Great culture focused on maximizing your strengths vs. picking on your weaknesses. Lots of customer contact and real-world experience possible. Many opportunities to make team connections through project travel. Highly supportive of inward mobility so you can move around to support your growth.

Cons

Global teams sometimes siloed - you have to work to make connections on teams that cross offices. Sales and marketing-led - which is fine because they know the customer needs - but if you are looking for a design-led company this isn't it. Designers are also embedded with their businesses - have to work to make connections and find mentorship there.
