Pros

Great experience for those looking to branch out into health care, you can learn a lot if you seek it out. They are willing to train you and train you for advancement.

Cons

It is a very high stress job. Very busy and the donors can be hard to handle at times. The pay is low considering the risk of blood borne pathogens. Coworkers gossip excessively and this can cause workers to feel targeted and uncomfortable coming to work, but this is not unique to CSL Plasma.

Pros

I made a lot of friends there, and the employees on the floor were almost always very hard workers

Cons

The higher up in leadership you go the less you actually seem to care for the people actually doing the hardest work on the floor. The donors are often mean and impatient. And don't get kicked out if they are repeatedly an issue on the floor, because that's a loss of plasma. Many centers won't kick out anyone with veins that aren't suitable to be stuck. It's often up to the donor to walk out with two blown veins to decide not to come back.
