People are nice but benefits, pay and communication are extremely limiting

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

The employees believe in the mission and are generally supportive,, and the overall day-to-day work is extremely high quality, Even with some significant leadership changes. Their commitment to DEI in healthcare is commendable.

Cons

The benefits are costly, even though there has been a small incremental improvement; the cost (deductibles and weekly contributions) is eye-wateringly high, and the overall coverage is extremely basic, especially considering that Sound Physicians is a healthcare company. The pay structure is also relatively modest for the amount of work required. Also, there is a severe lack of communication between departments (especially in HR) and how information is communicated.
