Pros

The Cordis name is still recognized in industry as providing quality medical devices and the remaining employees are committed to developing said quality medical devices. Many positions are remote. Good company to start your career as you will get lots of experience (at the cost of your Work/Life balance) and then move on to a better paying less toxic environment.

Cons

Cordis is in a slow but steady decline. Numerous product quality issues, multiple product recalls. New owners want to cut as many corners as possible, some that could affect product quality. Plan is to "streamline" as much as possible to make a profit and then sell the company in 5 years. What future that holds for the employees is unknown. Poor pay, poor benefits and low morale. Bonuses only for Manager level and above. Plan on doing the work of 2 or 3 people and working 50+ hours/week as teammates leave and are not replaced. Multiple hiring freezes during the year. Mass exodus of experienced quality teammates, the high turnover rate is really quite impressive ! H&F bought Cordis a year ago, came in guns blazing, promising the moon. All went well the first few months and then the significant budget cuts started. H&F touts themselves as a really experienced top of the line investment company but it took their IT & HR programs months to implement, and they are still not finished. Shouldn't an expertly managed company already have these systems fully in place so they can hit the ground running ??

Cordis Response

As Cordis transitions as a stand-alone company, we are operating as a “flat” organization in a few areas, providing us opportunity to assess our processes to improve organizational efficiency. A huge undertaking of this magnitude takes time and does not happen overnight. We understand to become the leader in our industry, true change starts with our culture and the need to create a more cohesive organization through collaboration, empowerment, and professional development.

Pros

Broad range of experience and exposure to the JNJ Enterprise Work Life Balance Get involved in a broad range of business challenges Diversity of people and ideas

Cons

Upward career mobility seems to be based on knowing the right senior level managers and NOT on knowledge or performance. Definetly who you know not what you know to get a head. Resources are limited and there seems to be a lack of focus and moving of the goalposts
