Allscripts reviews

I'm not sure where to begin.. The Q3 results that recently came out are a great indicator of where the company is headed. Massive layoffs CONSTANTLY (including today, right before Christmas might I add- I assume to try to fluff Q4 financial results.) There is absolutely no rhyme or reason to the decisions that management makes in this organization, and when changes and/or major decisions are made, the communication is utterly terrible or nonexistent. If you want to work for a company that doesn't value or invest in its employees, then Allscripts is the place for you.

Please know I NEVER write online reviews...but if my review can stop ONE person from accepting a job offer here, then I consider this a success. There isn't enough space in this box to detail how horrible the leadership is at this company. There is a revolving door of new hires due to constant lay offs. Management has no strategy for acquisitions and over reaches in just gobbling up technology with no plan to integrate the product or its people. They will literally hire a slew of people, spend countless hours and money training them, only to lay them off in a year. There is zero company culture and morale is in the toilet. You are expected to be "on" during PTO. Often times employees who have no business being promoted to a manager, get promoted because leadership is too lazy to find an actual appropriate fit. There is no clear pathway for a hardworking employee to grow in their career and identify how to move upward. HR is stereo-typically on the side of the corporation and not the individual employee, but oh baby is it 100 times worse here. I had coworkers get their pay slashed in half by HR one day and then have HR praise how awesome leadership was to us in a meeting the next. Disgusting. Senior leaders in my group were more concerned about how long an employee took for lunch rather than actual output. Most of the leadership was only concerned about themselves. I will say the people that survive at Allscripts long term are in survival mode and have gotten very good at pointing fingers, backstabbing, or just being plain complacent about all the awful things they see going on around them. I'm begging you-if you are on this site reading reviews like I did before I accepted a job offer-please take this one seriously. Hopefully you will avoid some pretty miserable years.
