      As long as we sell a Linac, who cares about the people.

      Pros

      Because truly, if you can stomach the management, the overall goal of patient care and how far cancer treatment has come, is extraordinary. Elekta has the product to be Extraordinary.

      Cons

      Micromanagement at its finest!! Nepotism is key! They are a software company who can't figure out how to install their own software product. Onboarding process is weak and insufficient. You are not prepped for any project by a qualified PM. Sales oversells things order fulfillment cannot possibly deliver, timelines are underestimated, customers are rarely told the entire truth, and the oldies but goodies shine like none other when it comes to promo time!!!! There are no bonuses, no incentives, nearly null raises, unattainable goals, ever changing goals, so many client enhancement requests no one can keep up, nor are they even close to being a priority, yet the worker bees take a daily beating in the field because the product comes no where close to performing like Epic or others. Rely on hidden agendas, secret meetings, selective groups, and the good ole boys club to keep only the tight knit people together.

      Elekta has made significant changes to ensure that we do what we say. These changes have led to significant improvements in many areas of our business, including some terrific net promoter scores. There is always room for improvement and, therefore, we welcome your direct feedback to your manager or through our Employee Engagement Program - where employees can voice their opinions freely so that the management team can timely address employee concerns.

      Indians for Hire Only by Indian Management

      Business outlook

      Pros

      I worked for this company for 6 years.This used to be a great company when the ratio for non Indians and Indian employees were offset. Benefits are ok, 401k matched at 5%.

      Cons

      Everyone considered this company as Little India since managers from every department only hires Indians colleagues or friends. The product quality has deteriorated, you have people left and right coming out of India out of no where. They have no clue to what they are doing. Their resumes looks really polished but when it comes to the real work they are useless, all talk no action. Indian managers expects to have them trained by experience employees or else. HR is aware of this practice by hiring only Indians but they are powerless since they are scared of losing their jobs. There are way better talented local applicants than what Indian managers hires but it is a common practice for Indian managers to only bring in Indians from their own kind. This is a common practice for all companies but Elekta have also been infected and company is going down everyday.

      Elekta wouldn’t be successful without each and every employee working towards a common goal and contributing their very best. We work collaboratively and inclusively together. Many of our employees have worked here for over 10 +years because they love working for Elekta. We also strive for continuous innovation and we work as a team to get things done for our customers and their patients. We have a great employee loyalty and retention program in place. The bottom line is: it takes team effort and we encourage a positive environment in order to achieve great results.
