Pros

PTO Fun at times Benefits

Cons

My experience with this organization has shown a growing disconnect between leadership’s stated values and the day‑to‑day reality for employees and clients. There is a strong emphasis on appearance, new technology, and high‑visibility initiatives, yet the basics of patient‑centered care and staff support often feel overlooked. Despite rising costs and ongoing staffing challenges, many employees still haven’t received cost‑of‑living increases. It’s difficult to hear repeated explanations and promises in meetings while resources continue to be spent on projects that don’t directly improve patient care or support frontline teams. The work many of us do is meaningful, but it’s hard to feel valued when financial decisions don’t reflect the needs of the people actually delivering care. I hope leadership eventually aligns their investments with their mission and the well‑being of both patients and staff

Pros

Good thing national teams allow remote work opportunity because there's not enough space in the local offices anyway, but you might just end up working after hours more often than not.

Cons

No pay raises year after year which is an actual pay decrees when taking into account inflation, fake "flexible" PTO, required to work 45 hours a week without any overtime, raises, bonus, or any financial reward which actually matters. You have to do ridiculous workday feedbacks, and self review every quarter but it means nothing because they don't even consider the feed back you've received when laying off. It is your job to find work, and when there is't enough work for you it's your fault, not leadership's. You get promised new projects and they are always delayed for months at a time and many times nothing even comes out of it. Pretentious company that likes to call itself "family" - only red flags here.
