Pros
-Lots of areas to learn and grow your skillset. -Lot of hard working people still there. -I still believe there are people that still care about patient care. -There are opportunities for advancement, but rare.
Cons
Last year or two has been met with a lot of executive decisions that were really puzzling and confusing for those that bought into the original mission statement of the practice. In the short time I've been here, we've gone from a practice that cares about the local rads, local hospitals and institutions to a company that reacts to Rads only when they've had enough. While some of it is expected from a company this large, it's a far cry from the mission statement of "Transforming Radiology". I guess when your mission statement is so vague it gives you the ability to turn on a dime to whatever this place is becoming. Appearances have become far more important than results. -Work life balance is a major problem here as well. There's on-call responsibilities, which is expected in this line of work, but good luck not getting interrupted on weekends, after hours, PTO days, and holidays. It's the RP way. -Training is also a big problem here. It's very much a learn as you go company. That has improved slightly since I've been here, but not to the level that's needed for an institution this large. -Silos and lack of communication are also major obstacles. Not a unique problem to a national level corporation. -Big disconnect from executive leadership. Job roles are often unclear or constantly changing, and I question if higher level leadership understand what their employees do on a daily basis.
