Pros

I loved my eight years at BD, had excellent supervisors the entire time and great teammates on projects.

Cons

There is a well-know unspoken culture of promoting men in BD, it's shame.

Pros

Great job if you like traveling to different hospitals all across the states. I thought it was a nice adventure.

Cons

I was let go and I believe I heard when I was there they had 50+ employees to share the workload When I was there it was 25 and everybody had plenty of work. Now I feel that has changed. They also changed names. They're now BD. Which makes them international., so it makes me feel that they'll be having a lot more choices? One other thing is the training team for Field Service Techs. treat you like you owe them for the job and try to make you feel like dirt. And then when they let me go they gave me a bad review. I was six mos. in New York and never did the client complain to me that they were unhappy with my work. I believe it was so I would have a hard time collecting unemployment.

Pros

The only Medical company in Yorba Linda. Nice area right next to Costco

Cons

Horrible rush hour traffic both in the AM & PM. No new products; only derivatives. Many new products are on hold. Very few are moving forward. They cheat employees on PTO & they offer NO sick leave. They pay 4 weeks PTO but 0 sick leave. Other med co's pay 3 weeks PTO plus 2 weeks sick leave. Only 8 paid vacations a year, unlike a standard 11 paid holidays at other medical co's. No chance for advancement. You are lucky to get 1% raise a year. Many got NONE. Bonus is only 3% maximum. No H.R onsite at all. If someone gets booted out, there won't be an exit interview. If people have conflicts, HR rep will come from San Diego once a month.
