Pros

Business with a purpose. Have their hearts in the right place. Strive to help their community. Excellent in their industry. They set the standard.

Cons

Management plays favorites and "takes care of their own". Willing to cut comission checks to sales reps for tens of thousands of dollars but will only pay their sales assistants a salary equivalent of $10 an hour. Huge inequality in pay, especially considering their performance standards, required specialized knowledge and direct contact with clients that create the good standing reputation they have in the business and medical world. Techs only make 40k range even with a college degree and military experience and no room to move up. Play favorites with their kids, giving them well to high paying jobs and titles, but giving other employees less opportunity and pay even if they have more experience than their children. For a company doing so well you would think they would compensate better and fairly. Women also have less opportunity and pay. Sorry, it's true. Walmart and TJ Maxx are about to standardize $15 an hour for cashiers. The fact Block isn't willing to pay more than that for some employees is sad. Interns at competing companies and in other industries get higher pay $15 an hour.

Block Imaging Response

Thank you for the kind words about our purpose, heart and pursuit of excellence. While we do aim to set the standard and live by our mission that “People Matter”, it’s clear your experience wasn’t all that we desire it to be. Block Imaging is passionate about treating others as we’d like to be treated and that applies to the compensation and benefits arena as well. Over the last 5 years, transitioning from a start-up business to a company with a large(r) team with differing gifts and roles, we’ve worked hard to increase baseline compensation and also extend opportunities for team members to grow responsibilities and thereby income as well. In the coming 5 years, we fully expect to be industry and community leaders in the way we support our team, from dollars to development. Thank you again for your feedback as we do listen in an effort to make Block Imaging a better place. Respectfully, Josh Block

Pros

Block Imaging has an amazing culture with awesome people who really want to do their best to support fellow team members and customers.

Cons

It's not really a con, but they are growing quickly and so there are lots of opportunities for change and when they do fail, they adjust quickly!

Pros

A lot of good manager, If the listen to the upper managers they have, I see them going a long way.

Cons

Some managers not so much;/ Upper management is not Biomed and it is backed by $$$$$, so it could be a crap company to work for....Time will tell.
