Pros

Some colleagues are genuinely dedicated to their work. Opportunity to make a difference in patients' lives.

Cons

Management Incompetence: The management at Vitas is utterly disorganized and lacks the necessary skills to lead effectively. Decisions are often made without any regard for the employees or the impact on patient care. Lack of Support: As a multimedia producer, I found that there was zero support for creative and innovative ideas. The leadership is resistant to change and unwilling to invest in the necessary tools and resources. Poor Communication: Communication within the company is abysmal. Important updates and changes are poorly communicated, leading to confusion and frustration among the staff. Toxic Work Environment: The workplace culture is toxic, with a pervasive lack of respect and appreciation for employees. Upper management fosters a culture of fear and intimidation rather than one of support and encouragement. Overworked and Underpaid: The workload is overwhelming, and the compensation does not match the effort and hours put in. There is little to no work-life balance, with constant pressure to meet unrealistic expectations. Lack of Growth Opportunities: There are very few opportunities for professional development or advancement within the company. The focus is on maintaining the status quo rather than encouraging growth and improvement. Unrealistic Expectations: The demands placed on employees are often unreasonable and unattainable, leading to burnout and high turnover rates.

Pros

Very friendly and helpful colleagues. I came to this company with very little experience and all of my colleagues helped and educated me with all things hospice care. I got promoted 4 months after being hired as a clerk into a secretary job. Best job I've ever have.

Cons

None that I can think of.

Pros

Great organization structure. significant opportunity to growth for lateral and/or vertical transition. Great compensation for all disciplines if done right, a great work life balance

Cons

Initial hiring, orientation is relatively slow may be even boring process. organization values people too much and believes in helping growth of individual so much so that some time slackers are able to survive longer then they should. which can cause loss of motivation for highly driven team members. the way I would survive if I am motivated for the cause is do what is right for you and your patients, apart from that just wait for the right time. Biggest pain point is EMR. this organization is slow to the game but the organization is building and perfecting home built EMR product to have maximum flexibility. currently going through growing pains.
