Pros
Other than once having had a leadership position in spine products, none. Consider that its LinkedIn page promotes "new" products that were released years ago.
Cons
Where to begin? This business was a mess before the ZimVie spinout in 2022, having been a mishmash of companies that didn’t make the most sense combined together under the Zimmer Biomet umbrella, after which the business continued to lose substantial revenue because ZimVie failed to accomplish a much-needed reset for the spine business. The private equity carveout of the spine business from ZimVie in 2024 was rocky, injecting even more substantial doubt and instability into the marketplace and the employee base. Constant turnover at all levels has fueled a poor culture. They have had three CFOs in the last 12 months. Two CHROs. Two CEOs. New positions created, and tons of voluntary and involuntary attrition. I am mystified why they let go of so many dedicated, hard-working people who had years of knowledge, education and connections in the spine industry and with the company's products. These roles were often replaced by networked people of lesser talent and experience. This creates an unstable atmosphere where everyone is fearful for their job, and no one wants to stay or feels secure. Almost everyone is looking for an exit door, and yes, I'm serious. Priorities are also constantly shifting, adding to the feeling of instability and unease. Also, the "return to office" push has been tone deaf since the majority of new leadership does not live locally and there are many remote employees, so this seems like an arbitrary check-the-box "butt in the seat" exercise, especially since mandated time in the office is not optimized.
