Pros

Pay is decent and competent, however they want that pay to be worth 2 to 3 people's work.

Cons

Very low consolidated and automated processes, meaning there is a lot of manual paper, manual file moving, and approval work like back in the 80s. They figure is cheaper to do it all by hand than upgrade automation systems, or consolidate databases.....resulting in up to 3x the workload unnecessarily. But hey, 2/3 of the workforce is from overseas so most labor is cheap for them!.....Go figure! Way to much internal training compliance 'courses, meetings, etc... leaving no time to real work at the premises....which you may take home to finish! a lot of problem solving is via their 'toolbox' portfolio which is a bunch of more complex paperwork to fill out just to show others! EXTREMELY time consuming stuff!...whoever stays here is either from overseas or likes to be overworked 3x !

Pros

My experience at Danaher was overwhelmingly positive. Great place to innovate and to see your contributions make a different. DBS taught me so much.

Cons

I don't think there is a drawback to working for Danaher. But everyone has their own experiences.
