Pros

Good food in the restaurant on the 14th floor

Cons

Leadership is incredibly corrupt, to the extent that even in their leadership meetings they LAUGHED about how few days the press spent paying attention to the whistle blower settlement they got the January I worked there. They skim overtime off their employees' pay and make people work off the clock, and understaff their clinics to the point of being dandergous for patient care, which is well documented. They have big hoopla surrounding their values and it's just that, pretty icing on cupcakes with zero nutritional value or substance. Their benefits are awful, as well. They are one ofbthe biggest conoanoesninnthe world and they dont even do 401K match foe their employees, and they count the 10 paid holidays against the "two weeks of PTO". IE: you actually get only 4 days PTO on top of the holidays they deem are paid.

Pros

Stable company to work for with great benefits. DaVita offers tuition reimbursement, so it pays to go back to school and get a degree. They also help with career advancement and development.

Cons

If you are new to dialysis, it may take a while to reach a decent wage. You are required to work 12 hour shifts, mostly on your feet, and managers will always look to add to your workload.

Pros

The local team was great. The FA was the best. She knows how to lead and to build a team. Helping the patients and their families was the best part. Knowing you were helping them improve their quality of life was very rewarding.

Cons

Upper management. All the executives care about is money. All management above the FA level was terrible. Always cutting your hours even though you were full time. People in charge that have absolutely no experience in healthcare. Management and executives who don't understand medicine and how healthcare works or should be. They bully, don't support, and try to find things to get you in trouble. They want the nurses to only use AI instead of thinking and doing what is best for the patients. When I started with DaVita, it was a great place to work. Since the business people took over at the top, it has gone downhill and is simply awful. I do not recommend working here.
