DaVita reviews

-Promotions are scarce, even if you work around the clock. You will be told a bunch of canned phrases like "you need a fulfilling side project" or given a bunch of awards but ultimately they will work you till exhaustion with no advancement -If you are not recruited from a high end college that one of the Directors went to, are not a part of their Redwoods program, or haven't worked at a prestigious consulting company, you will likely not advance no matter how hard you work -The benefits structure is title based. Directors and above get 3 months fully paid maternity leave while managers and below get 5 weeks at 60% pay -Very top heavy. Many directors that have no reports and little to do but have the title. Meanwhile if you talk about a next career step you will be asked if it is a title thing and made to jump through hoops for no career advancement

For new RNs, the pay is low and the training is so so. The people you work with are majority immigrants and always speak their own language. Lots of clicks. Lots of uneducated people work there and think they are your boss because they have been there longer. The RN to patient ratio is bad and definitely is a recipe to disaster. Its managed by people who do not understand anything about health care and they just care about the profits. They dont care about the patient safety or their health. They know these patients are chronically sick and will die so they treat them badly. Davita throws parties thinking they are doing such nice things by giving us food rather than giving us more money. And also the patients are nasty..they think they are your boss and tell you what to do or they report you to the state. Huge turn over and pay is also very low for RNs and Techs. VERY LONG hours...they work you to death.
