Work hard, play hard.
Pros: work from home flexibility, great 401k and benefits
Cons: overworked, underpaid
Work hard, play hard and sink or swim mentality
Great company with great benefits and flexibility.
Compensation is okay, but will likely not reflect the amount of hours you put in.
Best part of the job is the people and the culture that is focused around strengths. If you pass the Gallup personality test you will for sure be a "Stryker fit"
The
– more... people are ambitious, competitive, hard working and intelligent, with a lot of personality.
Hardest part of the job is that there's little work life balance. Typically someone that works for Stryker will wear multiple hats and perform many tasks that aren't in their "job function" or job description.
Senior management is excellent, c-level management is sub par and often times senior management doesn't have the ability to devote necessary resources to important projects.
Most enjoyable part of the job is that your making an impact on someone's life :) – less

Stryker is not a company for unmotivated people that think an entry level job will pay six figures on day one. They make you earn your keep. And when you do, they pay very, very well. As my four year anniversary with Stryker approaches I look back and it was very tough. But, I made it and it has paid off. Stryker wants aggressive and progressive thinkers. This isn't a nine to five desk job. You may get dirty....
