Pros

Nancy Smith is no longer the CEO of HFC (she was great). A company out east bought them in June of 2012. All of my co-workers were caring and compassionate, and great to work with. They have excellent services available for patients and their families. I think they still may be the only hospice in the area that does not charge the family for fees that Medicare doesn't pay.

Cons

On-site management and HR at parent company are not employee friendly, and can make the working environment (only when around them) very unpleasant.

Pros

Being able to care for the patients

Cons

Ok where do I begin? First of all beware all of you job seekers! Management will NOT disclose working conditions and the job description you will sign will CHANGE. And I'm not talking changes like fill out this new form or a change in a policy here and there. I'm talking about MAJOR changes and expectations about being on call, horrendous working hours and patient loads. All of the reasons you would take a job to begin with will not remain the same a month out from hire with this company. Get ready for management who do not truly care for their employees. You are just a number and the entire focus of this company is on getting a higher patient census regardless whether or not they have the staff to Care for them! Bottom line is management will NOT help or get in the field when short staffed. Staff is responsible and do not get compensated for extra time worked. The on call pay is the worst I have ever heard of from any company. This company services a 50 mile radius but again beware! You will be on the road from one end to the next and back again!! Upper management at the corporate level comes in to find out the scoop from employees and issues you have with management in "confidence" then betray you and tell management everything you may have said. Then corporate leaves and the office is left in shambles and friction among coworkers. This is probably the most awful working environment ever. Serious issues here- everyday there is a new posting for clinical director in other offices- something is going on here- I do not see this company doing well.

Pros

Work/life balance and management. The company cares about it's patients and that was pleasant to find. I would like to work there again in the future.

Cons

Management moved some departments to Dallas recently and displaced several people. But this is part of growth and offered to move several employees to continue their jobs. This is not really a con, but the company is moving to Texas.
