Pros

Very structured training to bring new hires up to speed. They invest a lot in the training program and it does seem to be effective. Management has identified what a great culture looks like. Unfortunately they have done a terrible job implementing it.

Cons

Too many to list. I want to start by saying this has been my personal experience - My CompHealth Experience. When I wake up in the morning, I want to die at the thought of going to work. I almost can't even enjoy my Sundays because I am already stressing about what could be going wrong with my book of business. My mental health has taken an absolute beating as a result of trying to be successful in my role as a recruiter. I have managed to make some decent money - but still not making what I was promised during the interview. There has been so much turnover on the team - which is hilarious because the boast of their high employee retention during foundation training. I always tell myself, "at least I've made it and I still have my job", but I live in constant fear of having a few bad weeks and then having conversations about how if I don’t perform in the next two weeks I’ll be put on performance improvement plan. The CHG Culture that they uphold is so fake and tacky, when you hear the CEO talk, you'll think, "wish I worked there". Managers always promise things will improve, but it doesn't. Sales/ recruiting expectations are insanely unrealistic and I always feel like I am part of a losing team getting reprimanded. Again, just my experience, but I can tell you a lot of other people on my team feel the same way.

Pros

CHG sincerely cares about people. I love working here and feel that my leaders always have my back. I'm also proud of the positive difference we're making in the world. In addition to supporting the healthcare system, we help send medical providers on mission trips around the world.

Cons

Not much to mention here. Wish we had more sabbaticals offered. Better 401(k) match would be appreciated, as well.

Pros

Ability to work from home. OK pay. Mostly great people to work with.

Cons

Used to be a company that never laid people off. Now it seems that every month, some group has layoffs. We are being told that AI won't replace any people, yet people are being laid off and not replaced. Promotions from within are rare. VPs are hired from outside the company. Culture has changed. Bad behavior is tolerated if that person gives good results for the bottom line. Leaders can push to have people in other departments demoted or fired. Many leaders only pay lip service to Work/Life balance. I often take my computer with me on my days off so I can jump on and take care of things. I frequently answer emails and phone calls on days off. Lots of pressure to come into the office to work, even if the rest of your team isn't there. Messaging from management is confusing. We are told that CHG is gaining market share in a difficult market and then told that CHG isn't meeting its goals, so raises will be very small and the bonuses won't be that great. But somehow CHG is doing really well. Skip level 1:1 are a waste of time. I've figured out that if I just get whoever I'm talking to talking about their stuff, I don't actually have to say anything. If I do manage to bring up a concern or ask a question, I'm told that I'm making an interesting point, but I don't get any further information or answers. Basically, CHG has become just like any other corporation.
