The 10 largest medtech employers of 2021 – and what their employees really think

November 30, 2021 By Danielle Kirsh

Medtronic1. Medtronic

Number of employees: 90,000
Glassdoor rating: 4.1/5
80% would recommend to a friend.

Medtronic (NYSE:MDT) says that its work environment offers a culture of collaboration and innovation.

Here’s what current and former employees have to say:

“Pros: Great work environment with work-life balance; excellent benefits; meaningful work for a company with a strong mission. Cons: Medical industry is highly regulated so making changes can be slow and difficult.” ––Current employee

“Pros: Large medical device company; sense of purpose in work; tenured reps are resources; 410k match (up to 6%); ESOPP (15% discount); health benefits; historically well run, as there are reps with tenure beyond 10 years. Cons: Lack of transparency from upper management; low pay compared to industry-standard; reduced reimbursement for travel; no new scaleable products in multiple years; continuous backorders stop growth from being possible; unclear vision; unrealistic quotas; growth reports from upper management do not align to quota achievement; overall sales rep morale is currently low.” ––Current employee

“Pros: Large, well respected by customers and the industry; high caliber people, doing exceptional work; bleeding edge in many respects; lots of excellent experiences in the medtech industry. Cons: Culture is full of arrogance; if you aren’t championing yourself, you won’t be promoted; lots of people there just to check a box on their resume without regard to the actual business or living the mission; some leaders are extremely cutthroat and willing to throw employees under the bus; rotating leadership; too much movement, not enough stability.” ––Former employee

“Pros: Good benefits; good leadership; good work-life balance. Cons: Employees are good about teaching new systems; not paired with an employee who knew what he/she was doing and always contacted system support to fix issues; if you are a contract to hire you in an entry-level position you will be treated as a second class citizen.” ––Former employee
