Pros

More often than not, patients and family are enormously grateful and benefit from VITAS services. Employees can leave work knowing they have made a strong impact in the world.

Cons

Incompetence, laziness, tardiness, and utter lack of proper professional etiquette plague all levels of staff and management. Majority of employees are ignorant of how corporations should function efficiently. Upper management opts to keep underlings in the dark on a wide variety of important issues of direct relevancy.

Pros

Very friendly and helpful colleagues. I came to this company with very little experience and all of my colleagues helped and educated me with all things hospice care. I got promoted 4 months after being hired as a clerk into a secretary job. Best job I've ever have.

Cons

None that I can think of.

Pros

Great organization structure. significant opportunity to growth for lateral and/or vertical transition. Great compensation for all disciplines if done right, a great work life balance

Cons

Initial hiring, orientation is relatively slow may be even boring process. organization values people too much and believes in helping growth of individual so much so that some time slackers are able to survive longer then they should. which can cause loss of motivation for highly driven team members. the way I would survive if I am motivated for the cause is do what is right for you and your patients, apart from that just wait for the right time. Biggest pain point is EMR. this organization is slow to the game but the organization is building and perfecting home built EMR product to have maximum flexibility. currently going through growing pains.
