Pros

Coworkers and staff that work around the facility are nice. Benefits are fine. The free lunches and the free parking are good too, but that's about it.

Cons

MICROMANAGEMENT! You get constantly bugged on how many cases you've closed in a certain amount of time and seem to be constantly watched. If you mess up on a task, instead of going through a coaching/training, you could get your "privileges of the task revoked" which holds up your and others' work. Supervisors love to single out and pick on some employees too. There's miscommunication on processes, which usually results in getting chewed out by super rude HRBPs. New employees/temps are herded into training like cattle and aren't familiar with things when they get out. Scheduling used to be OK until recently when everyone was told to put in time off requests 5 months in advance. Having to work holidays and weekends. No room for advancement if you're a minority. Also, there's always been talk of your applications being blocked as soon as you apply for an internal position...Really, you only have a chance at a promotion if you're a friend/favorite/serial buttkisser to the supervisors or director (and 9 times out of 10 some of those people aren't even qualified for promotions).

Pros

There some flexibility with scheduling and they let you pick up as many shifts as you want and pretty much your own schedule.

Cons

Very poorly managed, chronically understaffed but managers are dismissive and deny it. The support from staff is inconsistent, the staff nurses are either fresh new grads or very bitter nurses who don’t want to help and expect you to handle everything by yourself as a tech. Most nurses here are PRN’s on contracts that get floated so it’s really hard to expect consistency in the staff you work with and build trusting relationships. Management will promise to train you as a unit secretary but will never follow up. They also agree to help you get opportunities for learning and growth but refuse to follow up or forget about it altogether, despite reminders. It’s not a priority. If your goal is to grow and learn more this is not the place. It’s running on fumes at 95% of the time. Very high turnover, we struggle to keep staff. They’ll call you in to pick up when they’re understaffed with no incentive or something minimal like “swag” (some gear). Very poorly compensated and you will not be appreciated for the hard work you do. Also it took 2 months for them to get me started despite numerous attempts to reach the HR, Management etc.
