Passion
Finishing my masters in Biomedical engineering this spring. Interned at Eli Lilly as a sales rep currently full time at Accenture (cleared federal work) my options once I graduate, switch teams internally, switch to more prestigious consultancy (Mckinsey, Bcg), switch to actual engineering in defense (anduril, lockheed), or actual engineering in devices (JnJ, Medtronic) What are yall thinking? Yoe: 1 year TC: 83k
The healthcare industry is probably the safest industry right now and untouchable lol
Layoffs hit the medical device companies first and way harder than software. Medtronic got slaughtered by Covid. Things are probably getting better but I fled the medical device industry for tech. Techs layoffs have been mild in comparison.
That is interesting to know, I thought I saw Medtronic devices being used more than ever because of covid lol for all the patients in the ER
With the JnJ lawsuits hanging over their head I would be worried about joining. There are good places to work in medical device but itโs all niche. My favorite company in the space is intuitive surgical. Then the drug companies Eli lil, Nova nordisk, crisper therapeutics, and intellia therapeutics. These companies are growing and innovating in the space. I would look at these companies job posting and see if you want to work towards them as a goal.
Lmao nice post I was thinking recently and it seems the biomedical industry is the safest right now even more so than defense or tech. Youโre gucci bro
You got offers at these places or you just name dropping? Lol
Name dropping, trying to come up with a plan after graduating ๐๐
