Pros

Excellent core cause; great benefits for employees, too.

Cons

The work culture was not great when I was there; lots of pressure regarding stats and performance. Also, non-business-related ideologies were pushed/supported. I was very uncomfortable with that. Downtime and repetitive work made the job boring and monotonous at the center.

Pros

Where do I begin with the pros of working for Vitalant. Staff care about you and the pay is good. 401K. Great PTO benefits. Raises depending on performance and sometimes even bonuses.

Cons

Sometimes it feels like you need to be with the right crowd to be able to move up with the company. If you don't stick to the "STAR Method" you won't even be considered as a candidate for a higher roll no matter how hard you work. I have applied for a higher position 4-5 times and even with tremendous growth I still won't be looked at as a potential candidate.
