Pros

Insurance benefits are great Lots of PTO Slowly transitioning away from everything proprietary and starting to utilize more industry standard tools, making this a slightly more useful jumping off point for people just getting into the industry.

Cons

I always knew Meditech was lower pay on average in this industry, but now that I'm actively looking for new jobs, I realize just HOW bad it is. Entry level jobs with a low end of more than what I'm making after nearly 10 years of Meditech... The flip flopping an inconsistancy of the work from home structure is mind numbing. Messaging from CEO was almost word for word, "If management has to be in the buildings, we want you there too to make it worth our time." New CEO openly asked people to stop leaving Glass door reviews. She is tanking and everyone can see it. First layoffs in company history cut about 70 new hires by job title, which included "Software Tester", an already strained and understaffed role in most groups. Not major, but not a great sign either. Company picnic was dropped. Messaging was "While it was a difficult decision, it was an extremely easy decision financially."

Pros

Bare minimum Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday Rage applying Friday + binge watch Netflix Most co-workers are friendly. Work/life balance is pretty good since you do the bare minimum. No layoffs since a lot of people find better paying jobs elsewhere. Hard to get fired. If you're on a performance plan, you're good for 6 months to a year. Just keep the check/health insurance and work on finding a better paying job.

Cons

Pay after 10 years, as a software developer, is $75,000. Epic (competitor) pays twice as much(hence why we do bare minimum work). Bonus is like a kick between the legs. $2.5k before taxes. Outdated tech stack from the 70's and 80's. If you're stuck using their proprietary language more than 2 years, you won't have any transferrable skills and will be stuck here (management's goal) Electronically have to punch in/punch out like at Walmart. Also, if you need to go somewhere, you have to sign out that you'll be back in 30 minutes. They'll squeeze every second out of you. When someone quits, you get their workload for the same pay. Raises are very small. No 401k match and salary is so small, can't afford to contribute. Company's profit sharing is basically nothing. Most hires are right out of college. You train them and then they leave and then you do their work. All the doctors' offices/hospitals I go to use Epic. It's embarrassing to tell the person where I work. I usually hear, "We used to use Meditech. We switched". I don't even ask or care why they switched.

Pros

Pros -No layoffs, in the company's history, since so many people happily leave. -You're paid so poorly, the company can't expect much from you. -You have health insurance while you look for something better -The parking lots are nice. -Their proprietary tech stack is so bad, ChatGPT would probably crash trying to figure it out. Therefore you won't be replaced by AI. -There's some good people here. Most people are nice since everyone knows that we're poorly paid so why make things difficult for our each other. -I got a free laptop bag. It broke. -You get a frozen turkey for Thanksgiving and a $30 gift card for Christmas. -This company is good for older people who need health insurance and want to have some human interaction.

Cons

Cons -Pay is embarrassingly low. I mean pathetically bad. Teachers get paid more. That's how bad it is. -Search for Josh Fluke Meditech on you tube. The back to work video summarizes Meditech. You'll laugh so hard you'll cry. -Management wants everyone to start going back into the office, Redux! Tried using ice cream and company swag to entice us to come in. -There's 2 different systems for time tracking. One for "punching in" like an hourly worker, the other to track every 15 minutes of your time to see what you're working on and to make sure you're productive. -You can be here for more than 15 years and your salary would be equal to an entry level position at most other companies. -This company is stuck in the 80's. It's only been a few years since they "discovered" Gmail and switched from their home grown email system called Ratmail (seriously, that's what it was called). -You're embarrassed to tell anyone you work at Meditech. You feel prouder to say you're unemployed. -Meditech has several proprietary languages. If you're stuck using them, you won't have any transferrable skills. -Every year the bonus is smaller. At this point it's a slap on the face. -It's hard to find a rating on here lower than Meditech's. 12% CEO approval. Now that's bad. How come the CEO hasn't been fired? -So many people leave you'll have to do 2+ people's work for the same terrible pay. -Raises (if they have them) are small. -Management out of touch. They probably make enough so they don't care. - No one in upper management leaves. They had to create multiple levels of VP because of this. Associate VPs, Executive VPs, regular VPs, Senior VPs. AND there's something called Senior VP Emeritus! I don't even know what that is or what they do besides collecting a fat paycheck. -Low morale, bitterness, depression, indifference. -Management likes to paint a rosy picture of how well the company is doing , how many awards they've won, until bonus/raise time. Then it's we have to cut costs and be fiscally responsible. -You get treated like you're a non-proft. That means living paycheck-to-paycheck unless you live with your parents. -If you get promoted, you won't get a raise until a year later. They want to be sure you can do the new job before they pay you a higher wage. Also, the increase in salary is very small. -CEO has town hall meetings, but never answers the tough questions. We're told the questions will be answered by the Ombudsman. They haven't answered any questions since 2021. -You want to do a good job, but feel it's not worth it. You don't feel valued. -Cost of living adjustment. Ha! At Meditech, you get what you get and you don't get upset. I think food stamps can be used to supplement the ridiculously low pay. -Mgmt will come up with ways to try and boost morale as long as it's inexpensive/free. -After many years the company finally got a 401k plan. They don't do any matching. Unless you're management, you're paid so little you can't contribute to it anyway.
