Pros

maybe that benefits are offered

Cons

Minimal to no support for hygienist. Open during Juneteenth a national holiday which lets you know the little to no diversity on the boards and conversations that are not being held

Thank you for sharing your feedback and experience at Tend. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the benefits offered at Tend, which includes a great total rewards package of a competitive salary, healthcare & financial benefits, strong 401k match, laundered scrubs, and a great hygienist bonus program. Our clinical team is very knowledgeable and eager to support our hygienists throughout their careers. We are proud to have a robust new graduate training program at Tend, a career path to Lead Hygienist, 3 former hygienists on our clinical training team, great onboarding & continuous training, and a Lead Hygienist per studio to support growth & development. We are proud of the gender, racial, and ethnic diversity in our studios and how each studio is inclusive to all. While we are unable to close our studios on all holidays that our team celebrates, our mission is to educate and celebrate these important holidays with our Tend teams. We appreciate your feedback, and please let us know if you would like to continue this discussion, email us at people@hellotend.com.

Pros

Pay is decent (not necessarily the highest but above average), coworkers for the most part are great, hardworking people, state of the art technology and equipment, lots of opportunity for OT because the company is always short-staffed.

Cons

Literally everything else. Hours of operation are ridiculous for a dentist office (opening shifts start at 6:30a and closing shifts end at 8:30p), extremely high turnover rate for all positions (doctors, DAs, hygienists, reception, management) and at all levels, including HR and corporate, certain employees get favoritism/preferential treatment and are excused for terminable offenses while other people are fired on the spot for the same things (there’s supposed to be a “point system” but it is very rarely enforced), lack of communication and transparency between management and the studio, and the list goes on. And that’s only operational. Don’t get me started on how terrible the company is at providing care to patients. “Doing dental differently” is a scam. This company is run like a Medicaid office, just much more aesthetically pleasing. I wholeheartedly agree with the previous reviews that say the company is all about numbers. They truly do not care about employees or patients alike.
