Poor ethics of higher ups, zero empathy or respect to ground workers
Pros
- Plato system is easy to use. - Clinic assistants (CA) are friendly. - Good equipment.
Cons
VERY dismal attitude towards their ground workers - this includes CA and doctors, both part-time and full time. A colleague had an interview for an anchor GP position and was told that she would be let go if her clinic did not hit a certain revenue. The interviewer was also cold and did not really seem interested in hiring anyone at present. Worked in two clinics as a Locum. Working environment was good thanks to the friendly CAs. However, my experience was completely tarred when the company chose to cancel THREE weeks of shift work that I had made over one month advance because they hired an anchor GP. The company did not have any courtesy to inform the CA of their decision earlier and this was less than a week before the anchor was due to start work. Had to perform damage control and seek shifts in other companies to make up for the loss of income. This was after I had worked in this clinic for over 6 weeks and earned them three 5 star reviews during my stay.
