Pros

5 cent soda, good food that you are not allowed time to eat. The caf is good but they encourage you to eat at your desk.

Cons

The worst company I ever worked for, I quit during training period. The turnover is unbelievable, the owner made his own method to calculate employee turnover that does not count people that quit before working a full year. Pay is a joke, I was the highest paid recruit in my class by far and still quit. They track your every move as you must sign in every time you change areas. The product is in the stone ages. There is little upward movement and managers make half of their pay recruiting new people. The owner will not let you use real office software, as he insists that this is a "software company" and makes you use in house developed word processing and other programs that are straight out of the 1980's and cause many hours of extra work. They will not let you use any sick days, they say that is your "long term disability". I heard that they offer as low as 24K a year to start, they make you travel 2 weeks of the year for that slave wage. The owner forces employees to buy private company stock, he lost most of that money investing in real estate.

Pros

Casual work environment. Some very nice, helpful and efficient co-workers.

Cons

Unfortunately those co-workers never rise in the ranks. Management is terrible. Drove PtCT into the ground and had to turn to Meditech for their salvation. However, as mentioned in the title of this review, nothing has changed since 2008 when a very good and complete write up was posted. MT Boston and MT ATL do not talk to each other effectively nor do they even seem like one company yet.

Pros

1)Benefits are untouchable by any other company. The is 90% paid Blue Cross medical, dental, and vision, gym facility, discount lunches, free coffee, tea, and soft drinks, discount dry cleaning, etc.. 2)Most of the facilities have a lot of young professionals so the atmosphere tends to be very laid back and social. 3)Time off/Vacation is usually approved 4)The experience will get you a dream job with dream salary

Cons

1)Because they on hire internally you will start at the bottom of the barrell at an entry level position, which is not ideal for anyone who has a grad degree or has 5+ years experience. The reasoning is that most employees who have a senior level position never leave and thus you will never move up in the company. Also, just because someone has a moved to senior level position doesnt mean they are fit to manage...they may know the software very well, but have not capability of using effective managerial skills to motivate and train employees well. 2)Entry level = the most embarassing salary I've ever had. I am completely insulted by their offer, which is non negotiable. 3)Sometimes the social factor will backfire on employees. Try not to get caught up the "Meditech" lifestyle, because it will easily consume you. Everything about your life will change as far as friends you hang out with, possible romantic relationships, your scedule for personal life. Things like this will bring out rumors and other drama in the work place. I dont know from personal experience, but Ive seen it happen. 4)Training process is boring at first and then it will hit you like a lead brick. Also, those who train you can be quite cocky and intimidating when trying to relay the information back.
