Pros

Most the coworkers was phenomenal, went above and beyond to care for the patients to their best of their abilities. So many with caring hearts and compassion.

Cons

Vitas is a very greedy company!!!! They only care about lacing their pockets and not providing patients with the care they deserve. Wouldn’t give adequate raises to their staff or pay out the money to keep staff so their patients could be cared for especially at the end of life. Nobody wanted to work for them they are so greedy and insensitive to patients and families. Would not provide proper PPE for staff during COVID. Got $18 million from the government in COVID funds to hand us cheap shields that was actually plastic paper dividers that fogged up. Could not spend $3 per employee to buy us a reusable fog resistant shield when I asked.

Pros

Very friendly and helpful colleagues. I came to this company with very little experience and all of my colleagues helped and educated me with all things hospice care. I got promoted 4 months after being hired as a clerk into a secretary job. Best job I've ever have.

Cons

None that I can think of.

Pros

Great organization structure. significant opportunity to growth for lateral and/or vertical transition. Great compensation for all disciplines if done right, a great work life balance

Cons

Initial hiring, orientation is relatively slow may be even boring process. organization values people too much and believes in helping growth of individual so much so that some time slackers are able to survive longer then they should. which can cause loss of motivation for highly driven team members. the way I would survive if I am motivated for the cause is do what is right for you and your patients, apart from that just wait for the right time. Biggest pain point is EMR. this organization is slow to the game but the organization is building and perfecting home built EMR product to have maximum flexibility. currently going through growing pains.
