Pros

They have an online platform called Bonously where DORs, regionals and coworkers can give you points for good things done at work and you can cash out your points for a gift card etc. If you have a good DOR and a good work environment you can justify to yourself and overlook for a little why you are still working for a company who underpays you.

Cons

Group and concurrent are pushed on employees to benefit the companies finances not the patients . WiFi constant WiFi issues , equipments are old . It is difficult to get a raise .The only way to get a decent raise is to get new job . Losing contracts in buildings and being replaced by other companies seems like often.
