Pros

You can get experience in plasma, get your foot in the door as a new phlebotomist, get continuous $50 payments for each donation as an employee.

Cons

Very low pay, over worked, high turn over rate, anyone can come off the street and be a "phlebotomist" here and get paid the same as someone who is educated in phlebotomy or has previous experience. No overtime. No rotating weekends. Constant harassment from donors.

Pros

You get lots of hours and good benefits. It's great to put on a resume. You get great experience in a clinical setting. They help pay for your tuition to become a licensed phlebotomist. Management is very nice and helpful. They encourage cross training and being promoted. Get the experience and move on from this place.

Cons

It's a dangerous, hard job. The heated sealers are always broken, which means you're more likely to be exposed to blood. Don't work here unless you're ready to work hard foe 9-10 hours in a stressful, dangeorus environment. Training is awful. You will have everyone telling you how to do the same thing a different way. You have to be your own advocate. The people you work with are unprofessional, unskilled, uneducated, and downright rude. There is a lot of drama on the floor. The employees are loud, obnoxious, and immature. The donors are rude and can sometimes get violent. Coworkers and donors berate you. You have to have a thick skin to work here. The pay isn't great at first.
