Pros

labcorp was great to get experience since your patients can vary from pediatrics to geriatrics and everything in between. definitley makes you a stronger phleb and makes you polish up your attention to detail. I credit alot of my experience to the time I worked here.

Cons

you are extremely over worked. they expect you to do front office, billing/insurance, in addition to doing phleb work. often times they leave you as the only patient care tech in the location that is packed with people waiting well over an hour. they are purposefully understaffed and will not provide much help. managers try to help but ultimately corporate calls the shots and will not budge. its quite literally you vs a huge company. not to mention the "VIP" sites in los angeles. In training we were told no one is VIP and to treat everyone equally, even if they are a celebrity. However, working in LA thats a different deal and they will expect you to tolerate verbal abuse from clients in a high paying area like Wilshire. Toxic and rude clients but very hardworking staff that is underpaid.

Pros

It has taught me what I do not want in an employer It gave me experience for way better opportunities It made me realize that being a good worker doesn’t always mean being rewarded

Cons

When injured from being overworked and exhausted , they treated me like trash When compassion fatigue hit— they judged and questioned whether I belonged there rather than understood People make up rumors about you even if you didn’t do anything (it’s like a catty high school in there) Having one bad day constitutes you getting pulled in the office to be scolded If you’re a good worker, and you get your stuff done efficiently, they stuff you with more work Many individuals treat the animals like trash and are covered up by management if they are the “favorites” Most of the trainers there are absolutely catty people and will talk behind your back if you’re “too slow” or “not learning fast enough”
