Pros

You're interacting with people in the community. The staff are generally really nice.

Cons

You're not wiping behinds but you're definitely kissing them. The staff are again really nice but they're burnt out and that can make them unreliable and abrasive. This is a production job. And the physician Substitute is just here to make sure the plasma is sellable. All they really care about is high profits and when the higher ups come in they'll remi d you that you aren't doing enough. And once a month you're told you aren't doing enough as a center. Be prepared to miss lunch. Be prepared to be threatened by drug addicts. Constantly. I think when you're running away from bedside you don't really stop to think how this job goes against every single nursing bone in your body. Absolutely no autonomy. Atleast the hospitals and nursing homes have drink machines and pudding you can steal from residents. There's no shift differential. There is no critical pay. They will ask you to do more, it'll be in your contract. They won't pay you more. For any of it. I thought I was burnt out before I took this job. I was wrong.

Pros

-okay job for experience -sometimes they provided lunch or snacks for us -unlimited coffee (which you will need!)

Cons

-favoritism and discriminatory practices -exploitative work -exploitation of donors -EXTREMELY high turnover rate, especially amongst the phlebotomists: in my year there we went through 12 phlebotomists. None of them are working there anymore. -very sneaky about pay compensation for donors and for employees
