Pros

The work is very meaningful and rewarding when executed well. I met some very compassionate individuals through this experience.

Cons

- Compassus feels very corporate with policies, procedures and overall execution of those. Myself and many colleagues didn’t trust leadership as they seemed like “corporate robots” we had to prove ourselves to on paper. As I said in my headline, it’s a top-heavy organization. - High-drama and gossip environment - Money and metrics fell at the forefront, seemingly above patient care. I did this work until it felt wrong to even promote Compassus any further. I lost the passion and drive and didn’t trust the care I was “promising” families and facilities we could provide. - Compassus seems to operate based on what’s convenient for them and their bottom line. They will let people go at the drop of a hat if it’s in their own best interest. - Numerous times I felt my colleagues were treated as numbers and unfairly. If I spoke up, I feel I’d be the next person let go. - Short-staffed clinically, constant turnover, lack of true appreciation from organizational leadership. Their actions rarely spoke as loud as their words. - I was sick often in my time with the company. Now that I left, I feel it was due to constant stress and chaos. A weight lifted when I moved on to a new healthcare organization.

Pros

Working at Compassus has been an incredible experience! The company truly values its employees and goes out of its way to ensure that everyone feels appreciated and supported. The work environment is collaborative and empowering, where ideas are not only welcomed but encouraged. Leadership is approachable, transparent, and genuinely cares about the professional growth of their team.

Cons

Short staffing-while this is not a current issue it was very significant for a time. I was really impressed with how they handled this situation. Despite the challenge, management acted swiftly and effectively to address the situation. They communicated transparently with the team, redistributed tasks to ensure no one felt overwhelmed, and promptly brought in additional support. It was a great example of strong leadership and teamwork.
