Pros

There are few if any pros to this company. The one redeeming factor is that the product being developed helps to save lives.

Cons

This is a sales position. As a health care worker I did not initially consider that to be a deterrent. I should have. During my time at the company I witnessed abhorrent treatment of donors including verbal harassment and unnecessary refusals of service. Many individuals, rely upon their ability to donate as a means of supplemental income. Management and supervisors were incompetent and showed little to no ability to think outside of the extensive procedural standards. During my employment I frequently worked 45+ hour weeks occasionally receiving one day off in a two-week period. I frequently worked 10-12 hour days and saw hours docked when I was unable to take a lunch due to workload. The turnover rate in my area was through the roof. During one month we lost four of the six medical specialists. I would not recommend this position to anyone.

Pros

Your staff and the donors.

Cons

Senior management, HR, has become overtly focused on profits, and they really don't care about their people. You're a number and replacing you is as meaningless as any other major corporation. I have watched them terminate people with 20 years, good employees and it's just another faceless, emotionless industry. Used to be run by the GRIFOLS family now it is some board.
