      Pros

      Great facade of culture and family but in the end, it's a corporation. Really good employee discounts and if you're close with upper management you'll get away with murder.

      Cons

      It's a corporation and the only time you see or hear from upper management is if you're not making them enough money. Proper training is a joke and then they don't understand why you don't know how to do something. Doctor's are untouchable, so if you're a doctor you can literally do no wrong. Management and supervisors, better be ready to sell sell sell and suck up hard to your bosses. Staff, you're fine as long as you're friends with management. Work life balance does not exist. Constant staff turnover. Pay is subpar.
