Straumann Group

If you are a hard worker, you will drown in this environment.  You'll be surrounded by those who draw lines and phrases on a white board and little else and get rewarded.  You will have more work piled on you while others sit by and twiddle thumbs and search YouTube for videos.  Straumann takes the hard workers, and it's like running on a treadmill at max incline - they will keep turning up the incline until you drop, then laugh at you on the way out and find someone new to run to the ground. 

The walls between different departments here trying to collaborate are so high Donald Trump would be envious.  There's more flip-flopping and changing of decisions here than you'll find in politics.  Collaboration and culture are  two "in" phrases that get tossed around but don't actually mean anything here.  

The environment is the definition of toxic - people who leave comment how their quality of life improves upon leaving, people who work in manufacturing don't even want to walk over to the corporate side of the building because you can feel the toxicitity and drama in the air.  

Upper management lives the glass row and rarely ventures out to mingle with the common folk.  They are so far removed out of the day to day operations of the company.  The company has grown exponentially in sales and sales force but without the same growth in the back office to support the hard workers.  You cannot speak your mind here. The company is not what it used to be a few years ago and might be headed up in terms of sales but is a downward spiral internally.

Typical day at work: 

Pick Pack Specialist
- Heavy work load due to having to pick up others people slack.
- constantly getting yelled at by management to hit quota
- No team work.
- No hiring standards (lazy people).

Team Lead
- Meetings are pointless and nothing is discussed to better improve protocols or training. All I heard was management and higherups concerned about getting a pay increase themselves when they don't help on the floor when needed or simply just sitting in their office all day expecting things to get done magically with no supervision on floor.
- Unrealistic expectations concerning work load.
- No support regarding a pay increase to employees who are hardworking.
- Extremely poor comminution across all shifts.
- Favoritism.
-Unprofessional employee correction or evaluations (done in public/humiliation).

Workplace culture?
- Terrible, if you need something done from your manager don't expect it to be done that same week or the next. this request could take a month.
- No values or care set to employees.
- No diversity.
- No mental health support.
- No employee recognition.
- You will get interrupted on your breaks.

The Most enjoyable part of the job?
- Going home!

I was told during my first week on the job that they (meaning management) drop you in the water and see if you can sink or swim. 

There are some great people that work here..but then there are the management team who pretends to care and take what you say seriously and then totally don't listen to any recommendations to improve situations. There are also many people that just don't do their job but some how get away with it.

I agree that this is a completely toxic environment. The work load is ridiculous and if you are a hard worker they pile on even more. They provide little to no training on systems but expect you to know everything.

They pretend they are going on this cultural journey but if the leaders of the organization can't follow this journey then whey would their employees.

This is the worst job I have ever had! I loved what I did for this company but hate the way management doesn't appreciate good work and allows people to work in silos instead of working together.

As a customer service representative, it was busy and they did not have enough reps to answer the phones often times. When I first started things were good. The co-workers are very nice aside from the usual few in most companies. The pay and benefits are awesome and probably the best part of the company. There was a lay off while I was there and this affected moral. It seemed to be coming back when I left. I was hired for a later day position and was told that at some point I could get on an earlier shift. This was never offered as they hired new people though and I was stuck working 11;30 to 8:00, which affected time with my family. Ultimately for this reason, I had to make a change as I didn't want my job to be my whole life.

At Straumann, we are proud of a strong culture that places the growth of every individual (the “I”) at its heart, while also embracing the strength of collaboration as a team (the “WE”). We truly believe that when individuals flourish and teams work in harmony, outstanding results will naturally follow.

Our environment is dynamic and high-performing, shaped by an entrepreneurial spirit that encourages us to take initiative and innovate. Openness and transparency are not just words to us — they are essential values that guide how we connect and build trust with each other.

What inspires me most is knowing that the solutions we create have a profound impact on people’s quality of life all around the world. This purpose motivates me every single day and reminds me why our work truly matters.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
I’m going to be a apart my family and friends in general, but I’m glad to see my kids are safe from this pandemic because I know that will be extremely difficult for everyone and that I will never have to worry about anything

What is the best part of working at the company?
They are good to you and do a lot of little extra things like cook outs and stuff.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The lack of teaching you to be able to work more independently. They teach you enough to run the job but don’t take advantage of the people who are able to do more.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
It is very laid back but it is not a typical shop environment. It is a very serious place.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Very long and boring. With the lack of teaching you basically operate 3 machines they pretty much run on their own and you inspect parts.

I was terribly disappointed to work for this company after trying to pursue a position for years.  As a seasoned sales and management professional, I was appalled at the way this company treats it people.  Cultural journey is laughable and the work-life balance was not good. High turnover rates, but everyone who leaves for greater opportunities is labeled a "victim" or non-believer.  It's too bad because their current products and new product pipeline are outstanding.  It's amazing that they are still one of the top players in the dental implant industry despite losing a lot of great talent over the last few years.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The management team were the most professional 👏 👌. The coworkers were team players. They acknowledged your work , thank you for it. Other places are not like that. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Dealing with demanding customers. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
They had a great culture. They use to have cook outs, beer cart Fridays. That was before covid though. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Helping putting a smile in customers and salesman faces. That was the best job I ever had. I miss it very much. They got greedy by letting us go to transfer jobs overseas.  Not fair at all.

Best company to work for in the New England area. Straumann Group is well informed and equipped for all ethnic backgrounds. They have a solid work culture that many find appealing. There's many opportunities for growth & you'll be surprised to know that there isn't a limit. As long as you  are informed and ambitious, you'll have many opportunities to better yourself. Straumann Group goes above and beyond to show employee appreciation and gratitude, occasionally throws outings and parties. Oh, and to think I almost forgot to mention my favorite of them all is, " Beer cart Friday". In all, Straumann Group is by far a phenomenal work place.
