Pros
-Antipathy bonding is stronger than affinity bonding- creates a tight-knit relationship between employees of the same level. -A large portion of the budget goes to catering.
Cons
-Complete lack of transparency, expected to just 'perform your job', creating a ladder of mobility that is difficult to scale unless you threaten to leave. -Neglecting to appropriately staff and train on all fronts, resulting in uneven distribution of work and unnecessary overtime. (Making 30% of base pay in overtime, working 50-90 hour weeks regularly to compensate for training/staffing gaps) Personally, the majority of days were 10-12+ hours. There have since been restructuring changes, but the training gaps mean that there aren't enough qualified personnel and it defeats the purpose of the restructure. -Inability to plan personal time, forced to work most if not all major holidays, having abundance of time placed on retainer or lost due to vacation rejection by upper level management. -Air of distrust (within reason) as poor resource allocation encourages cutting corners/encourages dishonest behavior. Employees blamed and reprimanded for obvious processing pitfalls rather than reevaluating site standards to mitigate in-process risks. -Overall negative working environment due to work stress. Toxic positivity culture attempts to boost morale, but contributes to a disdain for management, Disregard for employee concerns. - Patient-oriented goals are a falsification to mask true intentions behind pushing cash incentive deadlines. (ie. pushing the need to get a treatment to a patient, when in reality the decision is driven by financial gain) -Poor adherence to established SOPs since revision takes months, and was never revised prior to facility transitions/upstart.
