Business Outlook

Pros

Great people work for this company, they just need stronger leaders at the senior management level.

Cons

Too slow to adapt to changes in the industry. Salaries range across the country for the sales team, some markets are harder to sell in but you're painted a prettier picture in the interview process.

Business Outlook

Pros

* Great ops and sales teams in areas I worked with; Always very hands on and served the client's best interest

Cons

* Professionalism slides as corporate office is in Louisville, KY (short skirts, flip flops, shorts, etc. are tolerated) * Routine, inescapable gossip * Most work/projects piled on to the 2-3 dependable work horses for completion * Too many new, un- QA’ed projects shuffled onto workload by management before completion of the previous one * Constant change in upper management; discord and resentment between internal teams * No desirable incentive for client retention; very small monetary incentive given annually

Let's be real...it's all about profit, not patient care

Business Outlook

Pros

The company has a nation-wide presence

Cons

Poor management at the local and regional levels. Corporate culture continues to move away from patient/employee care in favor of policies to increase profits. This business attitude is making it hard for the company to compete with mid-western competitors.
