Pros

They gave me an opportunity. The benefits are nice. The technicians and staff at my facilities are pretty good to work with.(Yes, I know that last part is not related to Trimedx, but I'm reaching for "pros" here)

Cons

For the sake of fairness it must be said that some of peoples opinion about this company can be influenced more or less favorably by your particular hospital system's governing body, management or if you're in the corporate office. The most important thing to state is that as a technician, you are going to get used and abused. You probably will be put into ethical dilemmas regularly. You will CONSTANTLY be asked to go "above and beyond" and receive very little in return. Management often asks for tech suggestions for improve work efficiency, etc and then basically come up with plans which tend to defeat most, if not all of the techs suggestions. I personally, along with other members of the biomed staff, have been given partial truth answers to a variety of levels of questions that we are only asking to help improve our job performance and customer relations. For example, a simple question about specific PA procedures was recently met with an unsettling amount of "double-speak" and "dodging". That should be a somewhat simple, straight-forward answer. When management "helps" it tends to lead to more work for you the technician. The yearly employee job performance review is a joke...as in, it sort of exists, but it doesn't actually benefit you. They give no bonuses for work well done and are very stingy with raises. I've been with them 3 years officially (plus 1 year interning) and have been asked to do more than you could imagine....and I can't even get an audience for a raise request or anything else for that matter. And I am not alone! My site alone has lost a few good techs in these 3-4 years because of Trimedx ridiculous adherence to metrics, the lack of consistent training, the lack of transparency, the ethical dilemmas we've been forced into and the lack of bonus or raise opportunities.

Pros

Amazing benefits, they cover everything except human sterilization due to the faith based component of Ascension. GENEROUS PTO - not many places will give 5 weeks (200 hours) for salaried employees from day 1. Employees - LOVE the people that work there that are NOT leadership, wonderful people in the same situation as I am.

Cons

There are so many things to talk about here, that narrowing the list is in my best interest as to not lose the reader. THe SOUL of TRIMEDX is gone, what TRIMEDX once was is no more. It's very sad, it's like mourning the loss of a loved one. Something once so wonderful is truly gone. TRIMEDX has all new Senior leadership, across the board with the exception 2 departments, and one of those is retiring any moment. TURNOVER IS ASTOUNDING. THe turnover is not normal, entire departments have been wiped out and there is literally no one to lead them. TRIMEDX doesn't acknowledge this, just seems to sweep it under the rug. "IF WE DONT TALK ABOUT IT, the problem doesn't exist". The above speaks to the leadership. They no longer give a single care about any employee. All are replaceable - unfortunately they can't replace them fast enough leaving huge deficits. this causes unusual burdens and loads, then more people leave and the issue snow balls. Promote to incompetence - leaders are not fit to lead. Many self servant behaviors that are not only rewarded but encouraged. It is everyone for themselves. The culture is a meer shell of what it was. There was recently a "20 year celebration" where they had all kinds of activities lined up. NOT A SINGLE PERSON PROMOTED IT BESIDES THE NEWSLETTER. Each day that passed, no one lead by example. It was so sad. CEO has NEVER been to the WEST building to talk to employees. He's only seen during town halls. If you see him at CO, he wont even look at you. Great CEO... Lead by example. That is how all the leadership behaves. They are so worried about themselves they don't give a care about their employees. You don't see leadership talking to anyone except their own. There is no cross team collaboration. It's a really vile soul sucking environment. They did impose a Culture renewal plan, I've heard about it but I don't know a single person that can speak to it. No one has followed up on it to ensure the program has taken place. It's DECEMBER and notices came out in JULY.

Pros

PTO, medical and dental great.

Cons

The transformation of TRIMEDX since the inception of TowerBrook and Henry Hummel is nothing short of tragic. The company is unrecognizable. The lefthard does not know what the right is doing. Human Resources has left in the masses leaving no one! Look at the job postings and you’ll see all the jobs. This isn’t growth! This is filling existing positions where the predecessors jumped ship! IT has become “Little Kohl’s” as the leadership team has been recruited by non other than the CIO, who came from Kohl’s. If you aren’t an ex Kohl’s employee or work for one of the Ex Kohl’s leadership there is no hope for growth. Clear favoritism and old boys club. TRIMEDX didn’t have an old boys club in IT until The CIO brought his boys with him. Majority of leadership was recruited out of state and live and work remotely. Seldom see their faces, just periodical emails and the visit once a month. So much for supporting the local workforce. The environment is dull, dingy and depressing. The turnover is not shocking but the numbers are. To save money not all positions are refilled, additional work and responsibilities are placed on remaining employees. This is what a company meltdown looks like.

Thank you for taking time to provide feedback. The last few years has brought tremendous growth and change for us an organization. Change isn’t always easy, but we work in a fast-paced industry that requires creative forward-thinking. Our voluntary turnover rates have decreased significantly year over year and fall within industry standards at this time, but we continue to strive to find the best talent in the industry and support them in career growth at TRIMEDX. We take seriously any comments regarding discriminatory practices. We are committed to high standards of ethical, moral and legal business conduct. This includes our associates. People are at the center of everything we do at TRIMEDX. We encourage and expect associates to utilize the reporting methods available to them: • Speak with your immediate manager • Reach out to a member of Human Resources • Speak with a member of leadership, including our CEO, Henry Hummel. Henry has an open door policy. • File a report via the Integrity Hotline (this option allows you to remain anonymous)
