Very understaffed, poor management, favoritism, too busy for COVID, long hours, bad “leadership,” very busy clinic, cliquey, gossip, micromanage, no set schedule, travel, no work life balance. Needs new supervisors.

Thanks for your honest feedback. Truly sorry you felt this way and we strive for better than what is shown here. We take your point that we aren't perfect. To feel that way is no fun and sorry it didn't work that way for you. This is one reason we continually poll our staff to hear how we can do better. The travel part and set schedule can be true depending on the job, so we try to be up front about that when applicable.

Business Outlook
Pros
Amazing co-workers and physicians. Beautiful offices, PTO accrual is at a good rate. good growth and skills learned in all departments. Regional aspect makes it better for work-life balance. Remote positions available(after experience).
Cons
Extremely short staffed to where people are burnt out. Not much acknowledgement to burn out. Being told they are making changes to make it better for employees, but making it more difficult. Being told we are heard, which may be true, but are not understood. Plans to rely on AI for working models to cut cost. Increasing physician count and patient count while reducing staff or keeping it the same, spreading current staff thinner. due to burn out, many people are quitting. high turnover rate.
