Pros

Good hands on training for beginners

Cons

Over worked and under paid. 17 an hour to wake up at 2am and do a 12 hour shift? The insurance is crappy I didn’t see nothing but $800 every two weeks, I can get a job that requires less work that’ll pay more. It’s not worth it. In order to move up you also have to have a bachelors degree, sucks.

Pros

Management supports a work-life balance, hours are flexible, okay benefits. Good training opportunities and there is effort by management to support a good work culture. 6 weeks at 80% of pay Paternity/Maternity & Adoption leave. 401K with 6% matching. For 2 adults, we pay for Davita's Anthem BCBS healthcare plan and it is $350/month (4,700 deductible).

Cons

Payscale isn't aggressive - 1% raise each year. You also may be asked to cover other clinics temporarily without fair compensation for the extra workload.
