Pros

Stable hours, benefits, good team to work with, managers are usually helpful

Cons

Assisted hygiene with no pay increase! No work life balance. Very early start hours 630AM or very late start hours 12PM. You have to work every other Saturday!

Thank you for sharing your experience and for the time you’ve spent at Tend. We’re glad to hear that stable hours, benefits, supportive managers, and your team have been positives for you — those things matter. We also want to acknowledge the concerns you raised around assisted hygiene expectations, scheduling, work-life balance, and Saturday coverage. These are real challenges in patient-facing roles, and we continue to review how compensation, scheduling models, and coverage expectations show up in practice to ensure they’re fair, transparent, and sustainable for our teams. If you’re open to sharing more context, I would welcome the opportunity to listen and better understand your experience at people@hellotend.com. We appreciate your feedback — it helps inform where we need to keep improving.

Pros

The schedule is pretty chill and easy to work with, and the pay is good for what we do. The office has a nice vibe, super clean, new/modern, and everyone gets along well as a team. My studio Manager is helpful, jumps in when she can, and ACTUALLY listens (not like my last boss). For me its a friendly place to work and learn.

Cons

Can get pretty busy with patients in hygiene but it makes the day go by fast. Most people pull their weight.

Thank you so much for sharing this! I’m really glad to hear that your studio feels like a supportive, collaborative place to work. Creating an environment where team members feel listened to, respected, and able to grow is something we care deeply about at Tend. Hearing that your Studio Manager “actually listens” and jumps in to help is exactly the kind of leadership we strive for across all studios. I also appreciate you calling out the cleanliness, modern feel, and the vibe of the space. Our goal has always been to build studios that feel welcoming not just for patients, but for the people who spend their days caring for them. On the flip side, thank you for noting the busy hygiene flow — we know those days can move quickly. It’s great to hear that your team supports each other and keeps things running smoothly, but we always want to keep an eye on workload and make sure the pace remains sustainable. And yes… snacks! You’re not the first to mention this, and I promise it’s something we’re actively exploring. We love food too. :) If you ever want to share more feedback or ideas, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We want Tend to continue being a place where you can learn, thrive, and enjoy coming to work each day. Thank you again for being part of the team. Miriam Scholes, Chief People Officer people@hellotend.com

We know how important financial stability and reliable scheduling are, especially in clinical roles like Dental Assisting, and we’re glad those aspects stood out during your time here.
