I quit this laughing stock of a company a few months ago and I can definitely attest to most of the previous comments i've read on this board. Rather than sling mud at this joke of a company for the dozens of reasons listed (and there are dozens), i'll say this to anyone under the age of 28 (consider it solid career advice): i've been in medical device sales almost my entire professional career and laparoscopy is dying. There really isn't anything new and revolutionary that's changed the way a surgeon does his job in 8-10 yrs. ok, big deal, a balloon added to a trocar to prevent it from falling out because some dumbass surgeon consistently makes his incision too big. Or a 5mm clip applier. WOW! Real game changer there. My favorite is the rumored Energy device Applied has said they were going to release almost 2 yrs ago. Ligasure, Harmonic Scalpel, Thunderbeat, etc have all been tested and proven in the market for YEARS. If you're thinking of joining this small mom & pop outfit, ask yourself, do you REALLY want to joking a company whose sole existence relies on the success of trocars and the products a dr sticks through them? I wouldn't. And I wouldn't advise anyone joining a company that puts minimal thought/money into their R&D either. But what does a veteran like me know?
