Medical Murray

Working at Medical Murray is an incredibly meaningful experience, as the company is focused on developing and manufacturing life-saving medical devices. Being a part of this process can be incredibly fulfilling, knowing that the work you're doing is having a real impact on people's lives.

We get great exposure to a variety of technologies and customer types. This diversity keeps the work fresh and interesting, and provides an opportunity to learn about a lot of different markets and capabilities. It also means that the team is constantly challenged to come up with innovative solutions to a wide range of problems.

The company has had to make changes to its processes and operations in order to accommodate growth, which has not always been easy, but it also provides opportunities for growth and development for those that take on more responsibilities.

Another aspect that is both positive and challenging is the variety of customers. While it's great to be exposed to different types of businesses, it also means that you will work with a wide range of personalities. Some customers can be difficult to work with, as is the case in any service provider job. The positive spin is the opportunity to refine communication skills.

Overall, working at Medical Murray is a rewarding experience that provides an opportunity to make a difference in people's lives. While there are challenges that come with growth and a diverse customer base, the chance to work with a variety of technologies and customers makes the job both interesting and fulfilling.

Big take away is this: I'm thankful for the things I learned while employed at Medical Murray, but I would not recommend the company to a friend. 

In my opinion, management at Medical Murray is unprofessional. I felt like I was walking on eggshells because most of the managers are very emotional - allowing their emotions to control the situation and their decisions - even when it comes to a person's employment status. I also had a manager who was a micromanager, getting their hands in things that are below what they should be focusing on. It's hard to work for someone who is constantly questioning your ability and how you handled it. 

During my time at Medical Murray, I noticed that the culture contains two things: drama and  favoritism. I left on good terms, and I saw both of these things play out in every department. Drama is taken as truth, no matter how much you defend yourself. Be careful of what you say because people will be really nice to your face, but really mean behind your back. I was able to find people I trusted and who trusted me, so it made my day a little more fun when they were around. Favoritism is based on how close you are to the owners of the company, not in how much you know about the product or how skilled you are which is extremely frustrating. 

This company pays well for the work you're expected to do, and it is a friendly environment where you'll feel comfortable. However, they are incredibly unorganized and don't know how to train people properly. If you are a fast worker, you will be told to slow down because they run out of available work very often and they are never prepared for it. Yet you will still be expected to produce high numbers of products and will be shown little to no appreciation for it when you succeed. Instead of being praised for doing your work well, you'll constantly wonder whether you should slow down so that you don't get sent home early. They will randomly change your schedule for the week, sometimes less than 24 hours in advance, and expect you to follow it or else you'll lose hours. After a while they will try to place you at a station where you can do a job that's well suited for your skills. But even when you've secured a spot in the company and proven your work ethic, they will still lay you off out of nowhere. Oh and you will have to ask management 20 times to fix faulty equipment before it actually happens, even after someone cuts themselves and bleeds in the clean room.

The good: The job & product you work on will help sustain people's lives.

Work Location is in a good location.

The bad: Very gossipy people working here. Grudge's are held against you. Favoritism. Nepotism. Last minute changes to work task's. Blame you for projects not getting done! Management takes NO accountability! Loves to point the blame.

Manager's don't have good leadership skills for the colleagues to succeed or to get where they want to be in there career. Leadership is very incompetent here! Only care about themselves & own career. Very concieded. Supervisor's can't read or spell in English. 

Training is very poor. Train the person once & they expect the person to know it from that point on. Certified!!! Training takes time. Rushed here!!!!!!

HR department is very incompetent! Doesn't look out for the employees. Very one sided! Clueless of the operations running with-in the company. Very confrontational with employees rather than helping solving the issues around the workplace. Makes thing's a lot worse than what they are. Terrible HR!!!!! Joke!

No work, life, balance!!!!

Nepotism!




What is the best part of working at the company?
The coworkers were pretty good.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Every step of the process is bogged down in a bureaucratic nightmare.  Training is sloppy, inefficient, and practically nonexistent.  Employees are so pressed to meet production rates, they don't have time to train newcomers.  Work instructions are clear as mud.  

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The culture seemed okay, at least on the surface.  I did not stick around long enough to find out.  The work environment was noisy and overcrowded, with people routinely tripping over one another.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Incredibly stressful, like a waking nightmare.

I thoroughly enjoy working at Medical Murray. I have learned a lot about medical devices and ISO standards since starting here. I have a fantastic manager, who gives me a lot of autonomy and has a lot of faith in my work and knowledge. While sometimes it can be difficult working with clients and meeting their expectations and their demands, I really enjoy the people I work with. It makes it easier to handle the difficulties. There is a great work culture, as they do a lot of activities (bowling, lunches, laser tag, etc.) to build a great work culture and encourage cooperation and unity with the employees. 

I get to make decisions that directly affect peoples lives.

I have learned a lot of technical skills to help me with my career.

I have fun coming to work every day.  Most people are truly happy to be here.

The hardest part of my job is to keep up with the demands of a company that continues to grow at more than 20% a year.

The most enjoyable part of my job is meeting or hearing about patients and the positive impact Medical Murray has made on their lives.

Medical Murray has a wonderful family-oriented culture. As a mid-size company, employees know and support each other. There is high potential for growth and opportunity. The work is project based, so you work on something new everyday. This allows you to learn new skills and you are never bored. The work can be challenging but it is also motivating and rewarding. The company is in the process of growing, so there is currently some restructuring of management. It is a great time to join the company. 

This place has changed for the worse over the last year or so after management took a change, and the family no longer runs the company - the people that have been brought in have no clue what is going on and sit at their desks and or offices and never are on the floor to understand what is going on or happening - if you are part of their click you are okay if not you are going to be gone sooner than later.  HR is to be there to help and protect the moral but that is not the case here - please look else where you will be happier

As an R&D engineer a typical work day can vary depending on the phase of a current project. There is a good combination of 3D design, prototyping, testing, and documentation that is used to support a variety of devices for the required regulatory approval. Engineers are responsible for working with customers and other team members to support a product through it's development life cycle.
