Pros
-Easy foot in door if you would like experience -Some managers are supportive, understanding and disagree with the unfairness -Need an adequate enough job to pay some bills but not career advancement within the company? This is your place.
Cons
- Long hours and packed schedule. They don't leave enough time for each exam guaranteeing a delay. You get to hear patients complain and the management! - They don't always properly train you through exams and protocols but if the techs make a mistake, they love blaming them and making them feel inadequate. - Majority of the Radiologists here are impersonal, so they sometimes like to pick on techs for small mistakes or even sometimes when there are no mistakes. -Corporate does not like to spend money on its employees. With a nationwide operation and networking in millions, they are stingy. Their pay is minimal, they will randomly put restrictions on overtime, there are no bonuses (but we have to perform at our 100% and be on time with schedule), and there is no raise annually. You have to fight for a raise and even then sometimes it is falsely promised.
