Pros

Some of the people are nice. The actual IT staff seems to really care but the management ruins it for everyone.

Cons

Completely understaffed and overworked for technical positions. The IT department is split in two with actual technical people and application team. The actual technical team, that runs the whole company, has been and continues to be insanely understaffed. Turnover rates are through the roof because of this. They insist on hiring the cheapest people they can find and not never have enough talent to keep things afloat. at least 8 sys admins have quit and been replaced the last few months alone. They rotate through people so fast that things don't even get done. The management does not care at all no matter what actual technical people beg and plead. All of the senior guys end up leaving because the management does not show any signs that they actually want things solved. I've never worked in an environment this poorly ran before and I'm honestly surprised it's lasted this long. I would not recommend working here to my worst enemy. They will low ball the salary and work you like a dog because they would rather do that and just replace people every couple months than actually hire an appropriate level of staff for how large his company is. Imagine having two sys admins for a location for hundreds to maybe a thousand servers and 6-8k computers. Even the helpdesk team feels the same way. There is not a single person you can talk to on the technical side that enjoys their job. RUN AWAY if this place recruits you for a sys admin, network, or helpdesk role.

Pros

The best reason to work at GI Alliance is to help patients. Doctors are providing an essential health service to a LOT of people - anyway to assist in that endeavor is fulfilling despite how egomaniacal some providers can be. (*cough* Dr. Akerman, Dr. Hogan, Dr. Bernsen and others *cough* )

Cons

GI Alliance's biggest fault is its cancerous rate of expansion. The company has exploded in size for many years, but there has been almost zero focus on internal growth to facilitate the rapid expansion. As a result, the corporate side of the organization is failing. Working in that environment made it hard to continue finding fulfillment in supporting the medical staff. If you want to work somewhere with a solid internal structure, GI Alliance is not the place. Another con is the culture. As my title implied, the providers are first. But that makes sense, they ARE the reason GI Alliance exists... to an extent. The company can only truly operate at the capacity it does because of the general corporate staff that do everyday legwork. You'd think there would be some appreciation for the effort these people painstakingly spend so that these providers can line their pockets even mo- I mean treat patients even more, but that is not the case. It's not a toxic environment, but it's not an altogether positive environment either. Unless you're a doctor, I suggest looking elsewhere if you want somewhere to work with a vibrant, fun culture. GI Alliance is not that place. The last con is a result of the two before; however, it may just be a personal experience of mine. There is no earnestly fair system for judging annual performance, and if there is, it is not appropriately overseen. Ultimately, I felt like a ghost.

Pros

Great learning experience. You will learn a lot. Different types of Systems and networks.

Cons

Recent executive changes to IT management team was a terrible idea. IT department has a high turnover rate. Someone quits weekly due to bad IT leadership. Every day something is on fire at this place. Nontech Cybersecurity director is trying to run the enterprise IT, micromanages the staff, and creates a hostile work environment. IT management is not technical and they have unrealistic expectations. Department is always under staff. No work-life balance. They expect you work 16 hours every day (including weekends). They have no respect. They call your personal phone after hours when you are not on a call rotation.
