Pros

In general, Danaher is a well run company that attracts great people. There are a number of development opportunities that exist and many opportunities, through its wide variety of operating companies and locations, to expand one's career.

Cons

The company is lean, which isn't for everyone. You need to be prepared to defend where and what you focus as it is something that may regularly come under scrutiny. That said, I've found that these discussions are done in a very productive way.
