Pros

decent pay, nothing else, nada

Cons

They stated they are family, yes a dysfunctional one. Supervisor and staff clock in and then to the cafeteria for breakfast, seat down to eat, joke, curse and talk about the other coworkers. Then work...By 10am they do census, go See the patients in 1min when it should take 15 min a questionnaire, don't return phone calls to patients. At 11:15am they go to the cafeteria for lunch and seat down eat at noon they clock out for lunch and go for a walk. Then work... By 2:30pm they go to the cafeteria to look for pastries come back make coffee, curse a little more, joke, then work and by 3:30pm they gather because at 4:30 clock out to start tomorrow the same thing. Supervisor and staff use sexual content when talking to each other. Except for one worker, no one pick up or return phone calls, they joke when their is a code blue... Is just unprofessional.

Pros

Compensation is fair (just compensation, benefits aren’t great).

Cons

No “flex PTO” - you have a PTO bank and a sick bank. You can only use the sick time for doctor’s appointments and actual physical sickness. So if you’re never sick, you just lose that time. Middle management is not aligned with C-suite, causing tension, confusion, and miscommunication. Technology is lacking (paper PTO forms, no interoffice IMing system, etc). They conduct “random” drug testing (like they have all the money in the world laying around to pay for that!) and if you get called, you have to literally drop everything right then and there, miss or be late to meetings, etc. to go do that. What a great message to send to employees — “we don’t actually care about the work you’re doing or its importance, we want to intentionally interrupt your day and productivity.” Every single day feels like you’re on an episode of The Office, except you’re not chuckling at it because now it’s your life. Overall, a very “old school” mindset and culture. Progress, innovation, and creativeness are nonexistent—it’s 2018 and the place is being run like it’s 1994.
