Pros

Ample resources to work with, time for patient interactions, adequate training regularly provided, awesome people to work with (usually)

Cons

Not always the most efficiently oiled machine ever. It really depends on upper management to make changes, and that doesn't always happen. Also, under-staffing happens regularly and maintenance staff is always under-staffed where certain areas do not receive cleaning at all like the gym. Being a hospital as well, communication is always a big area that can be improved.

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!
