Pros

If you’re in juuuust the right department, you’re probably OK, but most people are screwed.

Cons

Very inconsistent, unjust pay. Compensation seems to depend more on how you were brought in, rather than; 1) your output, 2) tenure at the company, or 3) ability to keep clients happy. Mostly low pay for the people who do the bulk of the work and/or who have hung around hoping circumstances would improve. If they promise you more pay or a promotion, don’t trust them. Even if they give you a timeline. Won’t happen. For some, it’s been almost five years with neither DESPITE great work and a significantly increased workload. The irony of PG offering employee engagement tools with such a demotivated, dejected workforce cannot be emphasized enough. The company’s product offering, likewise, is supposedly raising the bar of technical prowess (or some elusive nonsense like that) while internal tools are manual, home-made, and pathetically subject to human error. Compassion-less, spine-less, withdrawn, remote c-level “leadership” who care more about the healthcare leaders they’ve lunched with recently than hearing from the long-standing employees who keep them profitable and of good repute. This seems to be the only place to warn prospective hires off, since our own internal engagement surveys are left unaddressed, and no one’s from the area any more. We used to be a fun local company that people looked up to. We’re now the dilapidated, hardly-functional, forgotten, zombie company of a corporate drone’s nightmares.

Pros

Employees thrive in these workplaces if they enjoy tackling challenges, experimenting with ideas, and working in a social and energetic environment. It’s the kind of place where every day brings something new, keeping engagement and excitement high.

Cons

Nothing so far. If any will add more

Pros

There are employees that are smart and passionate about their work who also want to do a good job for the clients and for each other. The flexible time off is a great perk.

Cons

Originally drawn to Press Ganey because of their altruistic focus on reducing patient and caregiver suffering, over the last few years it has been disheartening to see the focus move away from this. The focus is now technology, not the human experience or the improvement of the experience as it is being touted. A change in focus is not necessarily the issue, it’s that the organization continues to stand on a narrative (human experience) that indicates they are something they aren’t. It appears that there is no longer a true desire by executives to help clients improve the experience of their patients. This is evidenced by the lack of training for new client-facing employees, the reduction in force that took out nearly every single person in education, the lack of updated resources and toolkits available to the advisory team, and the unbelievable client load that so many individuals and teams carry. Middle management was largely disconnected. In fact, many were not able to even remotely speak to what their team members were doing day in and day out, let alone be able to do it themselves even if they once did. Over the last two years, responsibilities and roles had shifted so often and so much that consequently, it became challenging for those actively in the roles to know what they were supposed to be doing. And again, with very little educational support or assistance in these client-facing roles. More than anything though, the core of the undoing of this once prestigious organization is the dishonesty of many of the executive leaders followed quickly by utter disrespect towards employees, and even openly towards each other. There is a gross lack of psychological safety within PG and the executive team owns this. Not the middle management, not the employees, but from the very top. Unfortunately, the one at the very top is out of control and has been for quite some time. He is not the leader that the organization needs any longer. For prospective employees, there are plenty of other organizations that are well-established and likely better suited. Looking back at all the reviews from the last two years would be a good idea before jumping into this boat. Sadly, it is likely to sink soon unless something drastic changes.
