Pros

A paycheck. and a job.

Cons

Horrible benefits. Far below the industry norm for IT salaries. They hold back medical benefits for 60 days from your hire date. No sick leave, you are required to use your PTO, aka vacation time. HR is useless, operates like they are in the 1970's. No room for negotiation on benefits or salary. It's their way or the highway. Lucky if you can get a manager that speaks English, let alone understands it. IT management only capable of understanding windows, forget about any Unix knowledge. Even high level software management doesn't know how their software or products work, forget about trying to bring any new technology in. Steer clear of this disaster.

Pros

Great company to build a long-term career in dialysis. Fresenius offers good medical, dental, and retirement benefits, and there are opportunities for growth if you want to advance your career. One of the biggest advantages is the tuition assistance program for employees pursuing their RN, which makes continuing your education more affordable. The company also provides specialized dialysis training, helping you gain valuable skills and experience in nephrology. If you’re motivated and interested in growing within the organization, there are opportunities to move into leadership or other clinical roles.

Cons

As an LVN, it can sometimes be challenging to balance nursing responsibilities while also performing dialysis technician duties. Your role may vary from day to day—you might be assigned as the LVN one shift and float or work in a technician capacity the next. Because of this, flexibility is essential. Daily assignments can change based on patient census and staffing needs, so being adaptable is important for success in the role.
