Pros

Entry level employees have the opportunity to advance. The benefit package is gook and there are benefits available to part-time employees.

Cons

Regulations regarding the reimbursement of dialysis treatments have changed, and in an effort to maintain profit levels management is "putting the screws on" workers at the patient care level. Staffing is inadequate to ensure a safe work environment, and basic supplies are limited in ways that affect care. Employee morale is at an all time low, as people are offered hypothetical bonuses for avoiding overtime costs, then constantly asked to work on their days off to avoid the need to hire more staff. All access to upper level management has to go through mid-level management who are coached and trained to be unresponsive.

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.
