Athletico reviews

Numbers, numbers, numbers...not a ton of value placed on being great at your job. It's all about referrals and contacts. Pay is sub-par and you are often being hounded to pick up extra events during the affiliate year in your spare time. Summer hours are in short supply so you get to use PTO to cover that, making it hard to use it for it's actual intended purpose. In the clinical setting the Athletic Trainer = rehab aide and you often spend time doing the same things that high school or college students hired without degrees do. Barely any professional growth opportunities, hidden behind "bonus-able" tasks that are still subject to individual/management review at the end of the year. ATs know that we will be working long days and often less than ideal hours, however Athletico only pays out for 75 hours bi-weekly even though you may be putting in 80+.

The clinic I worked at was like a jiffy lube for humans, not in a good way. Management only cares about making money. Patient spends 95% of time with tech. I was the worst job I ever had.
