Pros

Great opportunity to make connections amongst your colleagues and the patients that you meet on a day to day. Opportunities to learn and gain skill.

Cons

Pay is not the best, especially with the heavy tax they take from each paycheck. Money driven despite the facade of prioritizing member experience. Lack of care and consideration for non salaried employees. No acknowledgement of all federal holidays, including Juneteenth.

Pros

There are countless benefits to working at Tend. It’s a new and innovative company with cutting-edge technology and opportunities to grow your career alongside the business. Being part of a game changer in the dentistry industry is truly exciting. Since joining Tend, I’ve refined my skills, polished my approach, and gained a more structured understanding of business operations. My network has expanded beyond what I could have imagined, giving me access to incredible professionals in the corporate world. From working with outstanding employees to learning from structured and inspiring leaders—both those who are still with us and those who have moved on—the experience has been invaluable. In my 2.5 years here, I’ve had the privilege of promoting, inspiring, and helping to develop managers and leads alongside me, which has been the most rewarding part of my journey. Combine all of this with a great schedule and a supportive environment, and Tend truly stands out as a fantastic place to work.

Cons

Honesty is key, and I believe in keeping it 100%. As a newer company, Tend has endless opportunities for growth. However, with growth comes change, and at every phase, adjustments are necessary to meet the company's evolving needs. Change often means losing people—sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worse—but ultimately, it’s like a game of Tetris, where the pieces need to align to keep the momentum going. One of the most challenging aspects of change is transitioning leadership. Building trust and proving your capabilities all over again can be difficult, especially if you were on a clear and strong path with your previous leader. Change in systems and actions also adds pressure, especially when it comes to retention. People respond differently to change—some are analytical, some thrive on routine, and others resist it entirely. Finding the balance to build retention while navigating these differences is complex, especially when the expectation is that we all work together to succeed. The truth is, change affects people in different ways. This isn’t unique to Tend—it happens in every company. However, I’d rather go through it here, where there’s a clear investment in results and a commitment to growth. Grinding through the challenges is worth it because the pros outweigh the cons. As an optimist, I believe that if you have strong work ethics and strive to be a winner, every door is an opportunity waiting to be opened. At the end of the day, we are the business.
