Cons-
As a smaller company trying to grow in the market space they are always trying to accomplish more than what is feasible with the resources that are available (people and technology especially). This leads to many people working far more than 40 hours a week - HR (called people engagement here) will tell you you’re responsible for setting boundaries and creating work life balance for yourself- but the demands of many roles here make that impossible for driven employees that believe in the cause and want Renalogic to succeed.
The systems used here are problematic, it’s a common case of trying to fix one problem causing 10 more, the development team is understaffed and most of their direction is to focus on enhancements and new development vs making the current system usable.
Renalogic is an “at will employer” and utilize this VERY liberally. Many leadership roles have been terminated with no warning, action plans, or feedback under the facade of “organizational health”. If job security and communication is important to you in a role- I would reconsider seeking employment here.
The HR department: I’ve never worked in a place where HR (called people engagement at Renalogic ) is not an unbiased resource to support employees. People engagement will flat out state when they do not like an employee or when they do- and will attempt to manipulate leaders into making employment decisions based on their snapshot view of an employee which makes it very challenging to trust their guidance or question it for fear of your own employment security at this “at will employer”. People Engagement ultimately says who stays and who goes here- while they have minimal insight into the overall work of an employee.
Pay: pay is decent but historically they do not do annual raises or bonuses
