Pros

IF you're ever allowed to get into a sales position, they give you a monthly allowance towards a car payment. It's also nice that they have locations around the country IF you ever wanted to move and transfer...

Cons

A monthly car allowance is great! BUT they regulate the types of cars you're allowed to drive... can't be too nice, can't be too old, can't be this, must be that, so on and so forth. Also, they pretty much lie to you about how the career path flows. Don't listen to the recruiters or to HR, because here is the truth: They will start you off as a recruiter and assign you to a small team of a few other recruiters and typically, one salesperson. The salesperson's duty is to market and acquire new business. The recruiter's job is to take the needs of that new business and fill their open positions with qualified candidates. They tell you that you'll be a recruiter for a few months, maybe six, then you'll go through sales training, then you'll be promoted to a salesperson. The salespeople are the ones who get the car allowance and the hefty-er paychecks. This is all bogus. The truth is that they sign you on and you have to stay in the recruiter position until they tell you that you're allowed to go into sales training. There are requirements and qualifications that you must meet, understandably, but the bottom line discretion is up to your office's boss. You go into training when he tells you you can. And if he/she doesn't like you, then you'll never go into sales training. Once you complete your sales training, THEN and only THEN are you allowed to apply to open positions. Oh, there are no open positions in Chicago? Too bad. Try our MD branch. You don't mind relocation, right? My point is that these positions are rarely open and the company is not growing that fast, so new positions aren't being created either. So if you want to work for Medix, you better love being a recruiter because if you're a salesperson at heart and hope to just get through this training as quickly as possible, you're in for a rude awakening.

Pros

Medix Fit – you get to leave early 2 times a week (M-TH) to go to the gym; Medix puts $29.99 towards your gym membership. Right out of college it is great to still be working with people your age, yet it leads to an unprofessional environment.

Cons

Compensation and commission structure makes it almost impossible to make money in this company. Long work hours; 7:30am – 6:00pm with a lunch break from 12:00pm – 12:59pm. 6 meetings each day make for a very repetitive day; what new updates could you possibly have? All office meeting at 8:00am, 1:00pm and 4:00pm followed by meeting with your team immediately afterwards = 6 meetings every day, leads to the feeling of micromanaged and being babysat. You must attend all weekly company happy hours and quarterly events or you will be accused of not following the company’s culture and values.

Pros

I started working for Medix as an Intern during the summer of my Junior year in College. The company arranged for me to come from Ohio and work in sunny California. I paid my airfair and living, but was sufficiently compensated for my internship. Some of these reviews I have read are not based in reality. It's not suprising that the people who take their frustrations out through a review on the computer are the same people who fail in this company. If you are not willing to ask for help and expect things to be given to you, you wont make it at this company or any other. One of the most touched on points in a lot of these reviews are the "long-hours" with "no overtime." Listen, when you come to work for this company understand that you are not salaried workers. Although you recieve a yearly salary, this is not reflective of the work you do. You will get paid for how you work, not how long you work. My experience has been overwhelmingly positive. The company helped me move to California from Ohio after graduation and make my dreams a reality.

Cons

In any position that requires young people to manage thier time effectively, there will be individuals who can't. Know that you will have to plan your work and work your plan to be successful here.
