      Pros

      Pros are extremely difficult to find.

      Cons

      Culture of corporate backstabbing at its worst. The top performers are used as de facto in-house consultants to clean up messes the Divisional Vice Presidents (DVP's) let fester. Once the cleaning is done, the DVP's will either blackball their employee's attempt to get promoted or accuse them of breaking some obscure code in the HR handbook to fire them. This happens frequently, evidenced by most DVP's having an average tenure of almost 10 years, while the Directors below them have a 1.5- to 3-year average tenure.

      DaVita and Fear

      Senior manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      DaVita has a lot of remote opportunities.

      Cons

      DaVita is extremely hierarchical and cut-throat. It is not a support culture and you will need to "elbow people out of the way" as I have been told by our GVP multiple times. You also live in constant fear of layoffs. It is clear you are not valued.

      Proceed with EXTREME CAUTION...

      Registered nurse

      Pros

      You get to see the same patients every day, so you can develop a rapport with (most of) them. There's a lot of repetition in dialysis, so it's easier to learn the trade. I loved it at first... and then the other shoe dropped.

      Cons

      The company will work you into the ground, chew you up, throw you under the bus, then spit you out. Patients actively threatened staff members, but management doesn't care and won't do anything to protect you. Most of the management (Facility Administrators, or FAs) comes from Target or Kroger supervisor positions -- they are NOT equipped with the knowledge that goes into running a HEALTHCARE environment. However, they do. And it's awful. Patients are people, not products, but at DaVita they are treated like objects. A lot of people don't follow policy and procedure, and they put both the patients at risk AND the RN(s) at risk for litigation (and emotional/mental turmoil)... People will threaten to sue you left and right, but they are mostly empty threats. Some are not.
