Area Sales Manager (Former Employee), Boston, MA –
Pros: personal and career development
Cons: heavy travel
A typical day at Boston Scientific starts at 7:00am in the field meeting with clients and battling with the competition. At the end of each week we regroup to discuss our hits and misses so that the team can learn from one another. Management doors are open for everyone and they expect people to come in with questions or concerns. Co-workers work as – more...  one team even though they represent all functions. The hardest part of the job is having to travel 70% of the time in order to achieve results. The most enjoyable part is cellebrating success at the end of the year – less

I The engineering were full with paper work occupation, my job was more evolved directly with production, technical knowledge special when the maintenance technicians can't find the problems. Since some time I was very busy and – more...  most of the time I was busy with different projects and designs. I learned the format of organization of the company. How important is the documentation in the medical device industry. I make a Master paid by the company. Respectful and cordially relationship with managers and workers. The most I liked in this job is that they allow you to develop the ideas to improve the production and that they stimulated the participation of any range of workers in the plant. – less

Better than last company I came from.
R&D Packaging Technician (Former Employee), Maple Grove, MN –
Pros: not saying no..
Cons: not marketing myself more.
What is a typical day at work? Busy with time managment so important, organized very scheluded to meet our projects I loved the work and was happy there.
They are excellent as far as the training and classes for keeping my skills up and learning. The management approved my taking a writing class to help write reports and improve my emails.

At Boston – more...  Scientific, for the first year I worked as a Lab Technician PD (Pilot Plant) in the Experimental Design Group. We solved the problems. I performed so well that I was rewarded with a two-year defined-term position in Manufacturing/ Packaging, Production Testing/Inspection and Validation. I worked very hard with my projects.

Did what I was told to do? I worked with a great initial group of people some of which are not there any more. We were a team. Some of them later are at EV3/Covian. I was quiet and goody goody girl. My co-workers were respectful and professional to me. I always did my best to work and helped them with their projects. I dedicated my commitment to personal and professional excellence to my position at Boston Scientific. – less

Bad place to work, layoffs, offshoring, and very low morale
Various finance and business roles (Former Employee), Natick, MA –
Very hard place to work but good for clock-watchers and folks, who like to get paid for doing very little work. People are very arrogant, judgmental, and the place is full of demagogs who like meetings but don't like to do anything. I worked there twice, once ten years ago when the stock was at 50+ and most recently when the stock was at 5.
