Pros

Good for place if you have no work experience, young employees, if you become friends/network with the right people may be able to move up within the company, knowledgeable people in the corporate office, good concept in terms of providing good healthcare.

Cons

Disorganized, disconnect between corporate office and actual medical centers, if you're not a key player in bringing in patients you don't matter, a lot of favoritism because a lot of the employees are related, terrible managers onsite -e.g. don't understand roles of their employees, not very involved, etc.-, terrible conflict management - I personally reported various hr issues involving intimidation and bullying in the work place and it was never handled.-

You work like a dog, disrespectful staff, management is out of touch

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

Bonus, slightly higher paying than average physician salary in chicago, but the extra $10K is not worth it.

Cons

No growth professionally. Staff is disrespectful, does not adhere to professionalism. No boundaries. Management is out of touch with what's going on in their clinics. It felt like we were on our own much of the time, and had to address problems including referrals, etc on our own. Big problem with burnout. Too focused on just growing, no solid infrastructure of good clinic workflow.
