Pros

Karl Storz is a very family oriented company. I love the fact that the company is very strong and prides itself on helping others...Also. if you are in the correct department with a degree the sky is AlMOST the limit for you until you hit that GLASS CELE LING.

Cons

One of Karl Storz biggest challenges, is that they have very poor management teams. They do not believe in promoting from with in if you are not the right race. They re consistently hiring unqualified mangers on top and creating new director positions which are being filled from the outside, therefore, limiting the growth for people that have tenure and have been faithful to the company. The company has been in Los Angeles since 1971 and they do not have an African American or Hispanic director. BUT, yet the company is made up of about 70% minorities if not more.

Pros

Great benefits and company culture, frequent opportunities to interface with senior leaders and executives.

Cons

Roles and responsibilities are demanding, complex organization to understand, and requires in-office days if you are in proximity to a regional hub.

Pros

Good benefits, good amount of vacation time.

Cons

Poor middle and upper management. Although a lot of vacation time is given, you are not able to use it if you do not meet the percentage of your team. Meaning more than one person could not take time off at a time, This is a bad work place for your mental health.
