Great place to start your career, but get out after a year or two
Pros
- Great people with lots of talent within the clinic setting - A slew of specialties, so there's something for just about everybody - Nice client population - Lots of continuing education opportunities
Cons
- Incompetent managers, from the clinical level to regionals (and probably up to the top) - I do not speak about all the managers, but the ones I encounter on the regular basis have no business managing (many are Kaufman's goons). They lack leadership and garner little respect from the rank and file employees (or us insubordinates). On the plus side, if you can breath, are blind to actually believe what upper management tells you, and preach the AthletiCo propaganda, you can become a manager. - Very poor pay - Terrible support staff at the corporate office (again, there are some good employees at the home office). They tend to have very cush jobs, and have no clue on how to get things done promptly. AthletiCo really does need to test reading comprehension and reasoning (aka common sense) of their corporate employees. - Promotion of questionable and shady billing practices (borderline MC fraud)
