    Standard interview. Not great, not bad

    CEO and upper management need all the coaching they can get on how to build a decent medical device conpany. No value at all to their employees

    Coworkers are fine. But finding a different company is my suggestion to all
  • Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
    The CEO and leadership do not value employees in the slightest
