Pros

Good benefits and decent pay. I am fortunate to be able to work from home and I have a supervisor who grants me time off whenever I need or request it.

Cons

They are in over their heads and outsource everything they can. They don't have time to micromanage so they don't pay any attention to us at all. My supervisor can't make any decisions on her own, but her supervisor has zero concern for any of the employees preferences, desires, skills, or experience. She only looks at numbers and what is easier for her. Our small rural hospital was "acquired" by them and without knowing anything about any of the employees they purchased, they upended us and redistributed us without discretion. My former supervisor was not even asked about us. In fact, she was pushed out into a different department. Despite my skill and experience, she forced me into an area I was unfamiliar with and gave my complicated, high-volume payer to someone who does not understand nor have the capability of handling the challenges involved. Over the past two years the entire NLH network has begun to tank financially and has begun to lay people off. I can't help but wonder if the Management of the billing department has anything to do with this situation.

Pros

There were no real pros

Cons

Trained for half a day in diagnostic imaging and witnessed multiple issues effecting patient safety and profit over quality. Was told directly that if there were to be audits serious infractions could result. I refuse to work in a place that abuses staff and actively demonstrates disrespect of an entire dept that generates so much profit and plays an important part in clinical decision making. Also relies on staff to generate detailed reports above and beyond what is rational and offered no discussion or plan for improvement. No wonder they are always dying for help there and the patient wait times are often 1 to 2 hours for routine outpatient imaging. Entire staff from hr down was overwhelmed and understaffed with little to no orientation for a large and busy facility. Drs were explained to be threatening and harassing of staff as well on very first shift of training and that you should just get used to it and show you "want to learn" and there would be less harassment. Laughable in my 14 years of experience ive never seen such disrespect.
