Pros

I had a great experience working at CompHealth. They training was thorough and management was available whenever I had questions or concerns. The company takes its "Best Company to Work For" title seriously and makes effort to show appreciation for their employees. Sometimes the awards, parties, and events can be hokey, but they are usually fun and definitely done with good intentions.

Cons

The work of recruiting can be a bit tedious--lots and lots of phone calls. But there is really no better way to find doctors to work locum tenens assignments. There are many departments involved in placing doctors in the various hospitals and clinics CH works with. I think that the staff in almost all departments is great at what they do, but sometimes communication and a sense of urgency can be an issue. When an assignment falls through or goes south, it can be very stressful managing the competing interests of providers and clients (hosp, clinics, etc). But usually you have thhe help and support of management to deal with any serious problems. Also, there are a lot of competing locum tenens agencies out there and it can be frustrating trying to compete with the ones that mislead and cut corners with their physicians. CompHealth is thorough and consistent in their vetting of potential recruits and clients, but I feel that sometimes they lose business because of how much paperwork and documentation they require up front.

Pros

They highly prioritize work culture there and focus on communication and being available to help employees. They are very family friendly and their benefits seem to reflect that as well. If you are a very competitive contributor you can make a lot of money here.

Cons

High stress, and very competitive work environment, by this I mean you are competing with your teammates for business constantly! Most reps work overtime weekly to build their book and keep their books. Client marketing is very saturated.

Pros

No Pros. Stay far away from CompHealth

Cons

It is crucial to realize that the situation at hand is not an interview but rather an attempt to deceive you into accepting a position in a cold-call telemarketing role with a company that operates unethically. Every statement they make is false. Their actions verge on criminal behavior, specifically Fraudulent Misrepresentation and Fraud in the inducement. The company fosters a toxic work environment characterized by cutthroat behaviors, backstabbing, and unprofessionalism. The majority of the staff lacks relevant work experience, having been drawn from low-wage jobs that require no professional skills, resulting in evident deficiencies. Their business strategy revolves around exploiting vulnerable individuals without sophistication. Individuals often receive promotions they are unqualified for, further contributing to the chaos. The company's lack of organization is apparent in convoluted and unnecessary processes that hinder both customer and employee experiences. Interdepartmental communication is virtually non-existent, leading to a lack of accountability and unnecessarily prolonged tasks. Long delays and excessive communication are common occurrences, reflecting systemic inefficiencies. Certain individuals benefit from nepotism and long tenures rather than merit, indicating a problematic internal structure. CompHealth's decline is evident through the loss of significant clients and an inability to secure sustainable contracts. Internal job descriptions are poorly crafted, leading to mismatches between job roles and personnel. The company's operational inefficiencies contribute to extensive delays, with data manipulation being used as a tactic. The outdated business model and irrelevant product offerings inhibit the company's competitiveness in the current market. CompHealth fails to adapt to challenges or offer innovative solutions, highlighting its impending failure in the modern locum tenens industry. Widespread issues of bullying, harassment, intimidation, and violations of labor laws plague the company, causing fear among employees to speak up. Numerous complaints have been made regarding unethical behavior by management and team leaders to HR. Unfortunately, HR responds with retaliatory actions leading to termination. The workforce, mostly comprised of individuals with limited alternatives, face being mistreated in an environment where speaking up may result in dismissal. Reports of personal threats and intimidation tactics from senior staff members have been received, with HR failing to address the issue. The company appears to favor certain individuals by diverting business opportunities to friends rather than retaining fair practices. This conduct has eroded respect from clients, reflected in CompHealth consistently being the least preferred option for many. The company struggles to retain doctors despite having the means to offer competitive salaries, opting instead to underpay and deceive healthcare professionals. CompHealth's leadership, despite claiming openness and receptiveness to feedback, appears to react adversely to dissenting opinions or suggestions for improvement, resorting to threats of termination. Employees, fearing repercussions, have voiced concerns anonymously, with some seeking legal action against the company's unethical practices. The hope is that shedding light on these issues will prompt CompHealth to revise its treatment of employees and clients. The company's accolades for being a top workplace are disputed, as it has been discovered that employee surveys are not truly anonymous, and negative feedback can lead to adverse consequences. Promises of lucrative salaries are debunked, indicating a misleading practice by CompHealth. In 2024, the middle class now typically earns six figures. This company demands working a relentless 60-hour week just to make ends meet, leaving no room for work-life balance. To meet even the most basic requirements, you are expected to dedicate at least 12 hours each day, including weekends, to endless cold calls. If these calls were transparent, they might sound like this: "Hello, despite your current daily earnings of $2500 or more in your primary job, would you like to make $1200 by working on your day off at an understaffed hospital with a questionable reputation? The likelihood of overwork leading to malpractice accusations is high due to our inadequate staffing." Companies like CompHealth deceive employees by claiming ample job opportunities while in reality, they offer the same diminishing positions to a select few individuals, leading to burnout and frustration. Their health insurance coverage is subpar, with reports of employees being mistreated when requesting necessary medications. Technical issues plague daily operations as the systems frequently crash without adequate IT support. In essence, the mismatch between CHG/CompHealth's promises and the actual work environment reveals a stark disconnect. Although this role may serve as a temporary transitional period, it is advisable to leverage the position for monetary gain until securing a more satisfying and stable opportunity. Many remote workers are seldom at their workstations, prioritizing family commitments or personal activities. To maximize benefits, consider utilizing the $2000 monthly guarantee provided by the company while actively pursuing a more fulfilling career path before this financial buffer dissipates.

Pros

Travel and yes, this is the only Pro I could think about

Cons

paycheck mistakes, misleading or flat our liars for representatives, poor housing, poor pay, expensive yet poor benefits, inconsistency, poor management, poor communication and poor business practices I must say that I was placed in an awesome laboratory with great Technologists, but my experience with my employer was horrid. In 8 months they have changed the travelers handbook thrice, have made extensive promises they can not keep and place traveling professionals in substandard places to live. If you get a paycheck that is accurate consider yourself lucky and expect to get nickled and dimed to death. I have had two different "managers" covering my assignment both of which have no idea what a Medical Technologist does other than we work in a lab. No one at CompHealth has made a visit to this work site or ever performed a face to face with this client but seem to think they know everything about the area, living and social conditions and environment you are being placed. You would think such a successful business would have a QA department or atleast a provider support department instead of giving us a "manager" that has no clue. Traveling to a strange place with no support system other than your "manager" means placing a lot of trust in someone you dont know and this company doesnt understand that concept...they are our life line and at times never even return your phone call. If you are not a Doctor or working for a contact that is paying CompHealth top dollar beware of the support and service you receive or lack there of.

Pros

The people - you can make like long friends here. The sense of trust & loyalty and knowing my clients come to me to make a difference in their communities. It is very rewarding knowing I've helped their patients be treated and when we can't fill their need, I feel responsible to help them and want to always do better.

Cons

Having to be redundant with every sales rep & sales manager - communication & training is lacking. I'm over hearing we've grown too big too fast and sometimes it feels like a free for all. Using the system when I started to enter information & notes on every action taken against the account was mandated not an option to not. Today this isn't done on most if not all sales teams and it's frustrating to know what is actually happening....my thought is use the system in your benefit - let it be your memory so you don't have to store it all in your mind. Plus it will help you be more successful in your daily business and if you happen not to make it to work for whatever reasons, others can pick up exactly where you left off keeping our business moving forward.
