Pros
Managers are hit and miss, but many of them are ok to work for. The work location isn't bad at all (mouth of the canyon, so skiing is easy after work). generally people are satisfied with the work they do
Cons
Working at CompHealth is nothing special. They're rather behind the ties when it comes to modern marketing and web technologies (so basically you aren't getting the best leads) and they're a very old-school telesales company (as in, don't talk too long trying to sell or building rapport, or you won't hit the dial metric). Sales systems are a bit antiquated and they're just now hopping onto salesforce (2+ year development that still isnt completed)
They say they put employees first, and try to show evidence of it, but really, its superficial. Employee appreciation week essentially means the executive team ride scooters around, toss candy, bring in some speaker, and let you go home an hour early on friday (assuming your team performed exceptionally that week).
Oddly, benefits, are pretty lackluster for a healthcare company. Education is not valued at all (you have to qualify to receive 1k of tuition reimbursement after working there over a year) and hardly anyone in the organization has a bachelors, let alone an MBA (it's viewed as a bad thing... honestly).
Advice to Senior Management
Update systems for employees, do better SEO, promote education
Pros
Coworkers, flexibility in schedule, vision,initial training, communication of overall company goals was very well communicated. Brought in outside services to help employees have a good work/life balance
Cons
technology was outdated
evidence of favortism/seniority
Management was hit or miss on competance
lack of assistance when needed
multiple unnecessary meetings
Pros
Great If.... you have NO WHERE else to work
There is some money to be made....If you're willing to hate your life
Cons
The cubicles are awful tiny little things everyone can see over...
The managers treat you like your incompetent
The place is heartless, they would fire you in a second if your numbers drop for a week or 2
The job is extremely boring
All the management takes themselves WAY too seriously and expect you to as well
This place sucked the life out of me... I can't even explain it, but I'd rather live under a bridge than work here
They turn you into a freaking robot, there is no room for individual skills, talents, or personality. It's tyranny corporate culture.
Advice to Senior Management
Try to empower your employees and let them know you trust and like them individually.
An employee that feels unimportant is miserable. All the company parties aren't worth crap, employees need one-on-one nurturing and happy interactions. Stop wasting your money on stupid, fat parties and spend it on better, more experienced managers.
Pros
It does offer good pay with the promise of few headaches and no overhead in finding locum tenems work in the medical field. And they are fairly prompt in calling you back.
Cons
There doesnt seem to be any communication between or within their departments. I have also had to supply my passport copy three separate times and letters of recommendation twice, despite initial assurances that they would take care of things after just the first submission. I was told they would be applying for the license on my behalf for a state in whuch they had a job availability. four days later, they had done nothing. The next day told me to do it instead. I'm still not certain they really do want to place me in a job. There also seems to be jobs available through other recruiters that I am not hearing about from mine. My overall satisfaction after two months of nothing is about a 1 or 2 out of ten. My trust is about a 2 or 3 out of ten.
Advice to Senior Management
Coordinate your departments and make all offers available to all recruits, especially when you are playing with their time and their need to work.
Pros
The benefits and work-life balance they offer are beyond compare. The atmosphere in which I worked is was also really great.
Cons
The local management was not always as receptive as what I felt they could have been in regards to employees. The rate of pay for the work also could be improved upon.
Advice to Senior Management
I would advise that the local management at each office be more receptive in listening to their employees. I think they should also look upon improving the rate of pay for their business partners.
Pros
If you need benefits and don't have the desire to dress up nice or move up in the world, then this job is perfect for you... Also, if you like every concept to be explained in sports terms, you will love it! You don't even need a degree to be there! haha
Cons
Super low commission... forget moving into a management role... all based on favortism.... used car salesman mentality - after all, the VP is a used car salesman... That says it all....
Advice to Senior Management
Stop brainwashing people... recruiting and sales are two different disciplines... Don't present the job as a Recruiting position, because it is straight Sales.... Stop misleading people...
Pros
Use as a stepping stone. Will hire anyone who can answer a phone and everyone else suffers
Cons
Old boys shop brush up on your sports
Advice to Senior Management
Karma
Pros
Excellent benefits, culture, and support staff
Cons
Mediocre commission structure. it takes you and a goof army to actually make 65k+
Advice to Senior Management
better compensation / commission structures
Pros
Great building, beautiful location. Co-workers are welcoming and helpful.
Cons
Job security is iffy. People come and go quite quickly.
Advice to Senior Management
Leadership was good. But they were under pressure from the top.
Pros
Good money if you are assigned a good specialty
Cons
Chances of getting on a good team are 10%
Basically a telemarketing position
They monitor phone calls and emails
Advice to Senior Management
Allow employees to maximize their strengths rather than trying to mold everyone into master telemarketers.
