Pros

The mission to help people

Cons

Toxic culture. Toxic c-suite. Career advancement is dictated by who you know and if you're one of the favored. Compensation awards (raises and bonuses) are 100% subjective. You may hit a home run and not get a bonus or merit increase (see above, it's who you know). Best decision I made in a long time was leaving this hell hole.

Pros

We all join for the mission.

Cons

This organization is a chaotic mess. The leadership team hides behind their proclaimed mission, but in reality, they consist of a clique of unscrupulous, professionally underdeveloped physicians driven by greed and a desire for control. They operate by their own set of rules, dismissing anyone who questions their methods and view alternative ideas as a potential threat. The employees that have stayed for years are closely associated with the leadership (either through personal connections or familial ties) and are notably inept. The absence of well-defined processes is glaring, and support from the Massachusetts home office is virtually non-existent. HR is non-responsive and closely tied to the leadership. Managers exhibit a lack of experience in handling employees and, in some cases, work alongside or under the supervision of their spouses. The work culture demands an unreasonable number of consecutive hours without breaks, all while compensating employees with a flat salary, without overtime. The hazardous working conditions even extend to instances where employees, fatigued from working over 24 hours continuously, are at risk of accidents. I actually fell asleep at a red light on my way home from a case. This is not a company I would recommend working for. Individuals are treated merely as numbers, and the leadership demonstrates a complete lack of concern for their well-being. Steer clear of this company.
