Pros

Some coworkers are fantastic and don’t even realize how much better they deserve.

Cons

It’s insane. The best nurses I work with, have been stuck in the same position for DECADES. Meanwhile, the new hires and people that we constantly have had to fix their mistakes get promoted after 3 months of working there. Don’t be too good at your job or they’ll keep you where you’re at. They have people training and “educating” others that have never worked in hospice care, never worked as a triage nurse, AND/or only worked bedside less than a year, and/or aren’t even nurses!!! I think that says everything that needs to be said about the company and how much they care about patient care.

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.
