Many lifetime sales reps at MDT. Nice thing about devices, as oppose to pharma, a lifetime rep is not frowned upon and can make more money than their managers. Once you have key relationships in this industry, after 10 years, you can get what you want out of the company or threaten to take them to the competition.

Please do not lump Minimed in with the other divisions of MDT. I don't know much about this red-headed step child, but have know a few reps in my territory who were less than complimentary of the division.
