Great benefits but many disengaged employees and horrible pay

Anonymous employee

Pros

Covenant Health provided excellent benefits, especially health insurance. If you had a procedure done at one of the Covenant owned facilities there was no out of pocket cost or a deductible that had to be met. The paid time off (PTO) was incredibly generous as you let it accumulate without penalty and the company pays you your PTO when you leave.

Cons

The pay is horrible unless you are in senior management. The senior management has very little regard to employees as the employee is deemed replaceable. There is no upward mobility as most job movement is lateral. Executives receive a nice bonus structure while many of the employees struggle. Many of the top positions are filled with outside people. There is no organic growth.

Thank you for your feedback! Best of luck in your future career endeavors.
