Pros

If we get purchased, and you make the cut, your stocks should be worth something

Cons

Inhumane work environment with degrading comments mostly to females followed by threats. Least healthy, most toxic environment ever. Everyone is looking... even mid management. It’s bad when recruiters know it’s bad.

Work environment is key to success for any of us. We ask and encourage employees experiencing challenging situations to discuss their views with their HR Business Partner so objective facts can be gathered and tangible actions can be taken to assist.

Pros

The technology and future endeavors into oncology are promising.

Cons

This by far is one of the most unethical companies I have worked for in terms of billing practices, compensation plan revisions mid quarter that negatively affect the sales force and not paying commissions that were rightfuly earned based on billing technicalities. If you're interviewing, you need to reach out to a few sales people around the country and ask how many thousands of dollars they're out in commissions this quarter based on tests not being submitted to insurance plans due to the billing department's lack of follow up. Ask about the constant change in point allocation for each quarter's commission plan and how they conveniently change them and are pondering rolling over a quarter's sales knowing it is not a equal comparison for commission payment. Upper management at this company does not respect the salesforce and it is evident quarter after quarter as they plan games with commission plan and payments. The billing practices have put us at a clear disadvantage within many territories with large clinic systems as they continue to submit astonishingly high list prices to insurance companies without any movement towards in network plan status. Out of pocket billing of state insured patients is common place and should have been nixed long ago. Upper management is filled with embarrassingly immature and inept "leaders" who fill positions with cronies of the same caliber. The bottom line is the company wants one thing only and it's to ensure that upper management receives a handsome payday on their stock distributions. All others be damned.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that you have faced difficulties with your commission. We experienced issues with timely billing and payments from our customers. We fixed those glitches. So we believed those issues did not affect our sales team’s compensation. Though sales goals do change with the wave of business needs, we follow all legal guidelines to ensure our employees are notified of all changes and are paid on time and accurately. We encourage you to reach out to our Compliance Hotline, found on our intranet, if you suspect any unethical behavior at any time. We take this feedback seriously and want to remedy this immediately.
