Pros

Everyone I interact with here at Austin Retina is always such a delight. The staff are very understanding and optimistic all the time! Everyone is always willing to help out where ever and whenever needed.

Cons

Not many cons here at Austin Retina, if I had to say anything I would say maybe the parking. Not very many parking options considering the amount of patients we see and staff we have! As well as a lot of complaints about the face masks as well.

Thanks! Parking can be a challenge in the medical district of central Austin. Thanks for being patient! We do reimburse for any paid parking our staff incurs - but it can still be a bummer if that parking spot isn't close by. Life in the big city of Austin! Thanks again for the honest review :)

Pros

This review is for the research department. ARA really values their employees and routinely does things to make them feel appreciated. The work is really rewarding and the company really trusts the employees with new tasks, responsibilities, growth, and opportunity. Opportunity for learning is endless depending on your goals! Great team environment and everyone is treated as an equal. Work life balance is something that the company strives for and employees' time, values, personal goals are respected. Flexible. Very interesting work and you are helping people keep their eyesight!

Cons

If you are a person who must have structure and tons of guidance, it may not be the best fit. You will have to figure out a lot of stuff on your own which can be tiring but also rewarding. Frequent interruptions. Supervisors seem to have a ton on their plate. Extremely high volume clinic and patient volume. Also, pretty competitive which may or may not work for some personality types.

Many thanks for the review! We strive for work life balance and hope those busy days are offset with off time or slower days. Research has it's own culture for sure -- you guys are tremendous! And office space... we keep it lean in some quarters. Creating growth opportunities is something we strive for, also!
