Christie Innomed Inc

PROS: 
- Good colleagues and people are willing to give their best and do extra-hours to thrive the operational projects and deliveries. 
- Salaries, car and travel expenses are aligned with market benchmarks and competitors accordingly to your trainings and experiences.
- For a certain period of time, it used to be a place for positive challenges, creative and innovative workplace.

CONS
- Top management supports toxic work environment & non-ethical behaviors even if you had raised these situations at a higher-level.

- Employees turnover doesn't make any sense. Top management fired over the last months a bunch of people, so that too much expertise and skilled-people had been left behind, especially when it comes for technology product development.

- Top management seems to over calculate the ROI, so they loose sight of other key metrics such as : Clients success, product innovation, employees engagement, reputation, colleagues appreciation. Lots of projects are based on hard deadlines even if the quality could suffer.

- A part of the executive management doesn't clearly understand the business domain and technologies so they will take reckless decisions regardless the suggestions of experts who are directly involved with end users.

- The company is divided by silos, so that it creates a lot of asymetric information towards mid-level management teams and it becomes difficult to take accurate decisions.

SUGGESTION TO TOP EXECUTIVES : 
Please, expose the people to your concerns and opportunities on a constant basis, not only once or twice a year. Let them bring new ideas and new methodologies.  Let them take the ownership of their team structure, process and their KPI's. Don't forget to have an open mind and be flexible to new perspectives even if it doesn't necessarily fit with your own best way to see things and even if it makes you feel uncomfortable.

I have spent 22 and half years at the same Company. First 5 as a Field Service Engineer, after I was promoted to Regional Service Manager and stayed there for more than 17 years.
Company is privately own and while the original Founder and his son were alive, it was a great company to work at. People would stay for the decades and Company was returning this loyalty.
We all learned a lot and it was a pleasure to come every day to work.
Everything changed in November 2015 when they hired new President and CEO, who does not understand any part of the company business, but financial.
He changed all "old loyal" people and hired huge new Management Team. I do not see any progress in future for them.
Terrible atmosphere, people are scarred.

Christie is a great place to work, great management, hours are very reasonable (at times wish there were more avalaible), secure etc. Lots of positives including extra days off and even small treat packages sent to your home (only company ive seen do this). Only things that hurt are pay and benifits, compensation as a whole is under the cost of living in most areas. Wish they would do a bit more for RRSP contributions and overall salary compensation. Overall a 4 star company in my books. 

My time at Christie Innomed was marked by a severe lack of proper onboarding, a toxic culture of gossip and disrespect, and performance reviews that bore no resemblance to actual accomplishments.

From day one, the absence of guidance left me struggling to navigate the organization. Gossip ran rampant, creating an atmosphere of mistrust and paranoia. Disrespectful behavior, from leadership down, became the norm, fostering a toxic environment.

Perhaps most troubling was the glaring disparity between actual performance and performance reviews. Hard work went unnoticed, and reviews seemed detached from reality. Christie Innomed's toxic atmosphere and skewed evaluation process make it a workplace to approach with caution.

If not assigned a service call for the morning, service engineers would convene at the office to perform their administrative duties, review technical manuals pertaining to service-related issues and share with each other equipment problems they encountered in a clinical or hospital setting. 

Each individual being self managed saw fit to 'close the loop' with the client and share intelligence information with sales relating to upcoming projects.

Camaraderie amongst service representative was very good.

Not a great experience.  A very dysfunctional leadership that promoted a senior technical person who had no real experience in a leadership role causing that person to essentially learn on the job. This learning  curve meant making multiple choices that impacted those below them in a manner that was a recipe for for failure. 
No leadership accountability and just a lot of covering your on butt happened  making for a stressful unpleasant experience with little guidance or assistance.
