Johnson & Johnson is the biggest/best to work for in the industry
Huge on valuing employees and contractors
Abiomed has huge focus on their patients / their work having meaning, and passionate about what they do (they even have "wear scrubs to work day” to honor the health care providers they work with
Lots of growth opportunity, constant projects going on, J&J loves to keep people under the umbrella so even if their contract ends at Abiomed, a lot more likely to get them under another company (Ethicon, Janssen, Client, etc)
