Pros

excellent colleagues, lifelong friends, reputation of big name company

Cons

functions like a meat-packing plant: you get paid for an 8 hours day regardless of how many patients you treat in that timeframe. You could have a day where 30 people are on your schedule or a day where there's only 6 in the whole day and your pay is exactly the same. Patients are often late and you are expected to treat them after closing or into lunch time. Patients come early in the lunch hour and expect to be seen right away. Must do own laundry and linens, cleaning, and housekeeping work on top of treatment times and documentation which you will nearly always take home with you. Documentation cannot be submitted outside of a NovaCare wifi connection so even if you do it at home, you have to go back to a NC location to submit the notes. Very inconvenient and time-consuming.

Pros

They are flexible with scheduling as well as a great company when starting out, they very much help you as best they can until you can get the hang of things.

Cons

The pay can be a little low or sometimes there weren't a lot of hours, but pay in PT isn't great in outpatient overall anyways.

Pros

Great entry level job to gain experiences in administrative roles as you take on many roles at once.

Cons

Pay is not great and the only way you can get a raise is if they create a new position for you giving you more responsibilities. Felt a lot of pressure with numbers and meeting quota causing you to double book providers that caused tension. Some providers refused to give respect and call Patient Service Specialist as their position and referred to them as the front desk. Only position I had providers make me feel less than. I did not feel appreciated. When I went to management asking for employees not to use the "R" word and to refrain from talking negatively about those in the LGTBQ+ community. Very Christian based and you will be shamed if your lifestyle is different.
