Pros

The benefit package looked great until the takeover actually happened.

Cons

If you receive word that your company is getting bought out, RUN! They will do anything to mislead and keep employees until they take over, then have layoffs (especially if you are paid well before the take over), delay paying final paychecks past state allowed time and will not reimburse any expenses owed. When you inquire about payment, you get constant run around and never get paid unless you file suit, which is expensive and not worth it for a small sum of money. They KNOW this! Be warned and find another job ASAP. If you treat employees this way, just how are you treating patients?

Pros

Ability to work from home, bonus money is decent, and overtime is pretty abundant.

Cons

Cons: Management showed very little compassion or flexibility during serious medical situations. I was dealing with severe spinal cord compression and kept my supervisor informed every step of the way. My doctor’s appointment had to be rescheduled due to a tornado threat, and the physician was unexpectedly out until the following Monday, which delayed my documentation. Despite being upfront and communicative, I was terminated before I could even obtain the note. Losing my job and health insurance in the middle of a serious medical crisis was devastating. The role itself can also feel emotionally draining because intake staff are often left handling upset patients and families without enough support from the facilities. I had to reschedule my surgery so I couldn’t get married and put on my Husband’s insurance, kind of sucks a healthcare company would do an employee that way!
