Great Expressions Dental Centers Reviews

Pros

Openness of all executive team.

Cons

Vacation time isn’t the best.

Advice to Management

More group meets about company improvements.

Pros

Great hours, no nights or weekends

Cons

Bad management at the upper level trickling down to the offices. Restructuring the bonus system so that it's almost not worth trying. Taking away commissions, etc.

Pros

Full benefits, open line of communication with hygiene director

Cons

Medical benefits are through an unheard of company and not widely accepted

Pros

Friendly hygienists, doctors, and their assistants.

Cons

Owners are stuck up and NOT friendly, horrible training program, not flexible AT ALL, owners are not understanding, one certain location has a toxic and highly inappropriate work environment. I personally dreaded going to work because of the environment. At the very least, you want to enjoy the work environment.

Advice to Management

Get a better training program, look into your staff and how offices are ran when upper management is not around.

Pros

Every same level coworker I had was amazing, dedicated, and awesome to work with. Great people who kept the organization going.

Cons

Mid-level management is a joke in IT. More than one person in that department was run off by one, single person. Created hostile work environment and used degradation and intimidation to manage employees. Often micro-managing and taking credit for other people's work.

Pros

People and team members were great

Cons

Upper management treated us like toys instead of people.

Pros

Some of the reasons Great Expressions was a great place to work were all the employees I trained and had promoted.

Cons

Great expressions does not support employees. Long time employee working OT and not paid. Found out I was fired while on FMLA. Then company claimed I quit. My dedication to years of employment, ability to hire and train every level of employee, and stellar performance was overlooked when I had to tend to 2 immediate family members dying. Although supporting my position during an unpaid leave I was presumed quit. Found...

Advice to Management

Regional management is more concerned about themselves than creating a team. Listen to each employee via different avenues. Do not allow recourse from regional management during reviews. Create more collaborative platforms. My successful team was dismembered soon after my denied dismissal, Doctors included. Look at your long term staff and try to maintain their efforts

Pros

Nice patients, guaranteed lunch breaks

Cons

You are just a number. Nothing more.
