Pros

Good pay and benefits some of the best you will find in most areas in the USA. Minimal to no experience needed. Promotion opportunity is there. All the hours you can ever want to work if you want them. If they need people for extended hospital stays they put you up in a hotel and pay for food and gas if you use your vehicle but usually you have a company vehicle.

Cons

Staff do not follow rules with company vehicles and due to large shortages there is no repercussions for them. Overtime is forced on you a lot due to shortage of staff. Good if your single you can back a lot when your get 2 and 3 thousand dollar pay checks just don't expect to see your family much.

Pros

CC Uses cutting-edge Technologies, which is good experience for resume building; many of the Teams are collaborative; interesting work and you can believe in company goals.

Cons

Director and Manager level mgmt at corporate here do not provide guidance on projects. There is a lot of turnover on data projects because new employees are thrown into the deep end and then just blamed if results are not as expected. CC really needs more hands-on project oversight. There are also behavioral and anger issues with a couple long-time ppl as well, and this is both exhausting and (sometimes) outright humiliating. They need to treat new people better.
