Pros

Management used the company card to buy food for the break room after months of employees complaining that another center's break room was stocked with food.

Cons

The management is terrible at this location. During training, they act like they are there to support you and will continue their support anytime you need help on the phlebotomy floor. Once you're fully trained, they sit in their office and make excuses. The only way to get them out is to tell them that if they don't come help, a donor will lose blood which is a metric they get in trouble for when quality assurance reviews the donation statistics. The turnaround rate for employees is so high that 2 months in, I say every phlebotomist but 1 quit. That left me with 2 months of completely new employees that needed help while I was still trying to perfect my own skills. Again, management didn't come out to help the new employees after training and just expected other phlebotomists on staff to leave their donors to help.

Pros

Competitive pay, easy work, great benefits.

Cons

Unexpected additional tasks specifically for MP’s that were someone’s only job in the past (for 0 additional compensation), toxic leadership (specifically the COM’s as they do not possess the skills to manage people in the way a legitimate manager would-hense why they were only ever supervisors previously) that ended up in the positions they have due to recent restructuring, micromanaging everyone to oblivion, complete and utter disrespect from those unfortunate people in make shift supervisory roles.
