Pros

I was able to get doctors appointments right away.

Cons

Low pay for the number of hours worked. There were many many times when I put in 10 hours of overtime in a week and was not paid for those extra hours . The staff are rude to each other. The doctors treat there administrative assistants as if they are their personal assistants. I had to get coffee and lunch for doctors. Sometimes I paid for the coffee out of pocket and was not reimbursed. I would not recommend working here.

Pros

easy access from south of town, there is on site parking , no weekends with 25 years of service, there is a lot of diversity of people and cultures there. Large enough to do interesting cases but small enough so you still feel it is personable.

Cons

difficulty with important contract issues, lack of respect from upper management, floating We get charged, through payroll deductions for parking so if you are off for two weeks vacation you still have to pay for parking and you pay the same amount if you work two days or 5 days. Could use nicer and more places to sit outside.

Pros

Opportunities to learn a lot in a short amount of time, lots of local collaborations and community engagement, networking with senior researchers and providers, career development opportunities.

Cons

A lot of office politics, I find people can be very passive aggressive when conflict or misalignment happens, role responsibilities are not clearly defined, can be difficult to secure a promotion, low pay, lots of oversight, teams can be overwhelmed because they are over staffed, I didn’t receive formal training on a lot of things, management need to be trained on team leadership, high turnover, a lot of burnout, lack of employee advocacy from management, expectations can be subjective leading to a lot of confusion.
