Working at Varian Medical Systems, Inc.

Cons: No growth or learning opportunities. Total lack of mentoring. Lack of diversity.

Cons: Silos..non collaborative thinking

Cons: Office politics, senior management that does not care about individual contributors - they only care about promoting themselves and making money for themselves in the name of "The Fight against cancer". They are overly concerned with maintaining the "status quo" in the company and change here is slow and almost impossible. Individual contributors are paid extremely low salaries and have unrealistic expectations to meet, despite no monetary recognition or incentive.

Cons: Nice people, caring company

Cons: Tech company run by old school manufacturing people who don’t know how to compete in today’s market. Behemoth in its field ready to be toppled over the day a market disruptor rises. You will find the culture here is reactive to market and not proactive. They are the market leader and think just sitting on it is enough to continue to hold their market share. They pay engineering peanuts, management is only concerned about cutting cost even if it comes at the price of talent. Employees are disgruntled and try to work as less as possible to try and make themselves feel better about being underpaid. No motivation for innovation, no drive to make the best use of available and changing technology. If you spend too long here, you will loose market worthy skills and get sucked into this black hole of a career.

Cons: Compensation is very unfair, does not factor in skills in demand and similar compensation for that role in other organizations.

Cons: Pay is below average across the board except directors and above. There is visible discrimination even in office equipment based on your position.
