Pros

Staff stay because of the mission and the benefits package not because of pay or it’s leaders. Some of these overtly positive reviews don’t seem consistent with the employee experience.

Cons

Having worked at this organization for a number of years I have worked under various leaders. These past two years, the quality of leaders across the organization has tremendously taken a nose dive. My staff participated in multiple surveys and retreats where they were asked for recommendations on how to improve their work load and overall environment . No changes have come from these surveys, they’re all for show. Executive Leaders say they want to keep employees happy yet they don’t offer much flexibility or work life balance. I addressed these concerns with HR and the leader was unapologetically cold and unapproachable. I was told they didn’t have the right people in the team yet to make things happen. Meanwhile, at the clinics there is no support from leaders or HR. Everyone is on an island trying to provide the best care for their patients using whatever staff and resources they can get their hands on.

Pros

Great health and dental insurance, and lots of opportunities to train. Good coworkers to lean on.

Cons

There are rarely any opportunities for part time positions, so most people end up stuck and aren't able to attend school full time unless they quit. A lot of favoritism and nepotism. If you bring up genuine concerns to management, they'll just spit out corporate policies instead of working on actual solutions to help employees and patients alike. Several employees have left due to burnout but management shames them for not being able to handle the huge workload.
