Pros

I grew from entry level to seasoned professional at Boston Scientific. I learned everything I know about the cybersecurity industry during my time there, and view it as the place I "grew up" as a professional. Work/life balance is unparalleled. It's never an issue to take care of a personal matter. Management is always supportive of internal transfers if you want to do something else. BSC paid for high quality training and certification exams, and sent me to multiple conferences. The people are amazing. I always enjoyed working with everyone during my time at BSC. These are some of the best relationships I've forged in my career.

Cons

Pay is below market for cybersecurity. Back to office after 2 years fully remote was frustrating. Some office perks that were huge draws 5 years ago now seem like silly gimmicks to get people who want to work from home to come into the office against their will.

Pros

Good pay. Good benefits. My coworkers who were at the same level as me were supportive.

Cons

Work environment was highly stressful and often unsustainable. Management created a culture where employees were frequently overworked, undervalued, and burned out. Communication from leadership was inconsistent and their expectations changed frequently. Work-life balance was very poor. Employee concerns did not get taken seriously unless they directly impacted company performance. When an HR compliant involving my supervisor was filed for his behavior with input from the majority of the team members, no meaningful action was taken beyond stating it was handled "per BSC policy". Opportunities for promotion and career advancement were limited. Employees who treated others poorly were often still rewarded or praised as long as performance metrics were met. There was a clear culture of favoritism and hierarchy, and employees outside of those circles could work above and beyond expectations without receiving recognition or advancement opportunities. In 2 years, there were 12 employees who were fired in a 10 person department.
