Pros

I personally like the culture, fast-paced environment, mission, room for growth, ability to have your ideas heard, and co-workers. I feel like alot of these negative reviews saying that things are made up on the fly are by employees who don't understand that they are working at a start up? Of course everything isn't perfect, it is a start up. That is why our teams are coming up with new ideas and processes. If you come in to working at a start up with no flexibility, that is your own fault.

Cons

Vacation policy, not adequate pay for some positions.

Pros

Recruiters sell it as a place that is going to change healthcare and that there are opportunities for growth. Don't buy it.

Cons

Management/Leadership is littered with several moody, over educated megalomaniacs who are completely out of touch with their employees. You never know what you're going to get. Leadership lacks solid experience, has big egos and manages through horrific micro-management. It is an atmosphere that is run by politics with no self awareness which has turned into a miserable experience. There is an RVP model of which has little to no respect from the field. There are really questionable ethics on acquiring patients.
