Pros

Great coworkers make going to work bearable. If you want to gain experience in the field it's a good place to get your foot in the door. There are opportunities to learn if you are willing to push for them. They are always hiring so if you leave you know that you always have a job waiting if you were a decent worker. The benefits aren't bad if you do the extra wellness programs.

Cons

You'd never get the feeling that we are a health care company providing services that impact people's lives! "Production"is all that matters and all employees hear about. Management is unwilling to listen to suggestions from employees or outright ignore them. If you don't tow the line you get the boot so the mentality is keep quiet and do the work until you get enough experience to leave. Which most do after a year or two. Most supervisors are promoted based on seniority, not on who actually has any proven ability to effectively lead and manage people. Many of whom have never done so and are only doing it for a pay bump. Once you are a supervisor you are untouchable no matter how unprofessional or unapproachable you are. This place is unchanging and unyielding.

Pros

High turnover made it easier to get hired here. Decent benefits for working at least 30 hours a week.

Cons

Very erratic schedule in data entry department. We had to stay until the day's work was done, whether that was 4 hours or 10 hours. Also we worked every single Saturday. I wasn't told when I interviewed that our Saturday start time was 2 hours later than the rest of the week. I had no real weekend for 3 years. We got two 15 minute breaks during the workday, regardless of how long it was. We were expected to wolf down our lunches in that time and got the stink eye if we were one second late returning. The supervisor allowed no talking at all. If you engaged in a polite conservation with your neighbor, she threatened to deduct it from your break time. The environment was very catty and there were several women in the department who I am certain had serious psychological problems. The worst part of all is that we were forced to work in the lab opening shipments of urine samples because the lab was always shorthanded. I signed on to be a data entry operator, not handle someone else's pee. The smell is about as gross as you can imagine.
