Pluspunten

none except for industry. Please do not work here - do yourself a favor!

Minpunten

Everything. By far the worst place I' ve ever worked. Clear favoritisim towards Icelanders. The latest 'reorg' of R&D was the last straw. They replaced 5 good employees with Icelanders. One of them was by far the best product manager. It's almost as if after the collapse of the Icelandic economy and banks this company has become a jobs bank for Icelanders. Even 18 year veteran Palmi couldn't take the Icelandic incompetence, inaction, and injustice anymore. Of those of us left, everybody I talk to has had enough and is looking for a new job. I hear those that were 'reorg'ed' are banning together for a class action wrongfull dismissal class action lawsuit. I hope they take this shitty company for millions!

Culture, people, what you do for the customer and their patients.

Minpunten

Rapidly growing at times, rapidly declining at times, very fluid and unpredictable at times.

Pluspunten

Interesting products, particularly on the Prosthetics side. Nice facilities. And if you take summer holidays the way they do in Iceland, you'll be very relaxed when September comes around!

Minpunten

Ossur prides itself on its frugality, which is great for management and shareholders, and absolutely awful for employees. Good luck getting a raise or additional resources. They would rather use it for junkets for VPs. For real. And if you are not Icelandic, your views are worth approximately 70% of theirs and your job will always be at risk. It doesn't matter how good you are, you're expendable.
