Pros

If you're just out of college, it's a great place to work. They hire a lot of new grads and just younger people in general (I'm assuming because it's cheap) so if you're in that age range you'll probably end up meeting a lot of new folks, hanging out with them outside of work, and bonding by talking smack about management. They hire a lot from within, so there's room to advance. To reiterate, it's mostly a fun place to work if you're fresh out of college, and it's a great place to put on your resume. And as a bonus, if you have spent any decent amount of time on the job there (i.e. around a year) you can always apply at Genentech afterwords. Most likely you will at least get a temporary job in the reimbursement department at Genentech with Lash on your resume. Lash is like the minor league farm system for Genentech.

Cons

Another poster commented on the great benefits, which too me don't seem all that great. i was paying $25/paycheck (individual coverage) just for Kaiser, I pay nothing at my current job. Probably another benefit of hiring new grads...they don't know any better/don't have the experience. Pay is I guess on par, for what is essentially a call center in the US. Management sometimes treats people, well, like they're just out of college (which they are). Meaning they treat their foot soldiers like children. Instead of providing leadership and motivation, they provide threats. I guess sometimes that's necessary, but I think it's taken overboard sometimes. Just as an example, when I was working there we replaced our manager with another one from a different department. The new manager, I assume, wanted to set the tone for what would be known internally as her 'reign of terror' so she apparently decided that no matter what you did in the past, there was something worthy of writing you up for. In my case, she looked through all my old records, decided that the one time I was late was worthy of a formal write up, and proceeded to do just that. Which technically, if you read the HR literature, it was just suppose to be a verbal warning. I have no proof, but based on what I heard from every other Reimbursement Counselor, she wanted to 'set a tone' and this is exactly what happened with everyone else. Perhaps I should have brought this up with HR, but I suppose it's kind of not worth it for a job I was planning to leave shortly anyway. I think this happens to be the business model of their company. It's pretty rare that anyone stays at Lash over 3 years. I think it's intentional to have a high turnover so that they can keep labor costs down.

Pros

Currently the best reason to work at Lash Group is because it is a stable environment in an economy that is having some tough times right now. Lash Group always seems to be hiring and it is comforting to know that your job is fairly stable. The other good thing about working at Lash Group is the health benefits. They are by far some of the best benefits I have ever received from an employer and I know that I will covered for pretty much any situation. You also have the option of having two different vision insurances which is something that is important to me.

Cons

Lash Group does not do a good job of thanking all of the employees on a regular basis. They work the employees to the bone and don't do anything to say thank you. Something that would make Lash Group a better place to work at is if they provided praise and encouragement to their employees on a regular basis. Also, even though we are supposed to be helping patients there is a major focus on the money aspect of the business. If they focsed on helping the patients the best we can then the money would come in with that.
