Pros

You have a job and some income You will get a reference and skills for a better job

Cons

*Multiple people in several teams have made the remark that you have to be doing a job for ~1.5 years before you get a promotion and fair pay for the job you're doing *Extremely toxic work environment which starts from leadership and trickles down *The pay is a joke for what you are doing, you may as well work at McDonalds. *Executive leadership shares details of their expensive habits and fancy trips while teammates are openly complaining because they don’t make enough money to pay bills and buy food or gas to even get to work. *DaVita over the past 2-3 years have been force-firing long-term teammates who make more money than what they can pay a younger and less experienced employee *DaVita has been hiring people who are not experienced enough to do the job leaving each department weaker and weaker *DaVita is internally well-known as the “stepping stone job” or the Walmart of dialysis *DaVita lies to their employees with regards to expected pay and the Bridge Program *DaVita employees are so unhappy across the board the patients have noticed the downfall and are finding other places to get their dialysis done *Private pay patients are expected to pay ~$6k per treatment *the secret expectation is that you do part of your job off the clock across multiple teams; because they don’t hire qualified people or the turnover is just so high the work falls on the long-timers, you are constantly told to get the work done or your performance review is garbage but there’s not enough time in the day to actually get the work done; people are often times found working at 2am and again at 8am due to work overload or stress

Pros

Amazing culture, supportive of internal growth, rewarding career. Wouldn't see myself anywhere else.

Cons

None that I've experienced as a tech AND a manager. If you don't want to work for your achievements this is not the place for you. If you are a high performer and love to help others this is where you belong- work hard and be kind- that will lead you to be successful along the way.

Pros

Patient connections is rewarding work, great hands on experience, paid on the job training, training for PCTs is at least consistent.

Cons

12+ hour long hours, emotionally and physically taxing, unqualified management, poor communication, inconsistent scheduling, high turn over, very little amount of opportunity for movement within the company despite preaching that they encourage it. The culture and values are heavily spoken about with little to no enforcement. The position requires significant dedication to learn all the moving parts of the clinic.
