Pros

If you drive and have a CDL you make pretty good money.

Cons

You will be run ragged and not appreciated! I worked 1 and a half years for Lincare. I ran 2 routes for my own center then ran across the city to run routes for another center! 12-14 hour days are great if you never want to see your family! I took charge and reorganized the warehouse, re-established all of the routes, created professional-looking forms for the office, and regained patient confidence in the company. For this, I was fired for receiving a citation (for which the judge dropped the charges!) No, I transferred from one center on the other side of the country thinking that things would improve but it turns out that all three centers are messed up! I have been nothing but happy since I left Lincare! If you really need work, take it but be on the hunt for something better (if you can find the time)!! Good luck! :)

Pros

Larger branches, >10 employees, normally have sufficient resources to complete new orders. The company allows the Center Manager to plan associate career paths and to help grow others.

Cons

Smaller branches, <10 employees, sometimes have a difficult time ensuring sufficient inventories of equipment to ensure new orders can be fulfilled without the Manager driving to another location to acquire equipment. The company focuses on making equipment last as long as possible to the point that equipment can be in poor appearance but will still be used in patients' homes

Pros

The employees on the bottom rung actually really care about patients. There is a small town feel to the local service stores. The area stores work together well. There is a lot of freedom in the office as long as you get your work completed in a timely manner.

Cons

There is no management. Just number crunchers. Management only sees numbers and does not care about the employees just their jets and the shareholders. The upper-management got bonuses, raises, and tropical island vacations while the lowest rung employees doing all the hard work did not get raises and some will not see them until the next year. Nothing is uniform across Lincare. No one knows product knowledge and they dont care about anything but Oxygen growth. They also do not care about the environment with as much paper as they waste when the competitors have a more efficient way to process such as Apria and Rotech.
