Pros

Stable company - CEO made $1.6 million last year. (We were sent a free pair of running shoes) Expanding footprint all across Ohio. Benefits are OK

Cons

Pay is consistently below regional and national average for physician assistants. Never able to hire enough physicians or physician assistants to properly man clinics. Always begging you to work more with no incentive. Always changing with work environment without compensation (longer shifts, new on-call system, increased manning requirements without hiring new professional staff). Poor planning and decision making always resulting professional staff to work more hours covering more clinics and to complete ridiculous steps in poorly chosen EHR .

Pros

Somewhat decent pay for associates, but does it matter when your job isn't secure??

Cons

Another disappointing decision from corporate: eliminating all nurses in urgent care, regardless of tenure or performance. This feels like another example of leadership prioritizing small cost savings and lining their own pockets over patient safety and quality of care. Nurses were informed through a last minute Teams meeting where the director read from a prepared script about pre- and post- COVID staffing and the decision to return to so-called “national staffing standards.” No questions were allowed. Meanwhile, 16 job postings for medical assistants have already appeared in order to replace these asaociates (some nurses have already had the unknowing pleasure of training their MA replacements and learned that fact during the meeting! Wonderful!). If the change truly reflects national standards, even minimal research quickly raises questions about that explanation. It’s incredibly disheartening to see decisions like this being made at the expense of the nurses who have consistently supported these clinics and truly care about the patients they serve. Don't visit their urgent cares if your goal is to receive safe, competent care.
