Pros

Clinical experience working with patients and doctors

Cons

Terrible pay and terrible hours. In order to get the job they make you take a whole course for weeks which you must pass, all to use about a quarter of the information that they test you on. Even after that, there's no guarantee that you get the job unless you pass the "training", which consists of them putting you in the line of fire with little to no support. You basically have to figure out most things on your own within a few shifts, and if you can't get it they kick you to the curb. So you could spend months taking the course, trying to get the job, and then not getting it. All that is besides the minimum wage and super long hours that they offer you after requiring a lengthy training process. It is ridiculous and exploitative of the fact that pre-med students will do almost anything to get the experience necessary to get into medical school. If possible, look to scribe for a private practice instead of this trash company.
