Soliant Health Reviews

Current Employee – been working at Soliant Health full-time for more than 10 years

Pros – Having worked for Soliant over 15 years, I could share many aspects of the company that have led to my continued employment. However, the leadership of President David Alexander stands out as the single most contributing factor of the company’s success.

David is a man of impeccable character. He not only sets high expectations for his employees, but holds himself personally accountable to the same standards. His expectation of results, accompanied with his genuine interest in the lives of his staff, has led to the establishment of a performance culture where employees strive to do their best because of their personal pride in their job, and their desire to support the vision and mission set forth by David.

Although there have many changes with the company over the years, David has remained consistent in his commitment to servant leadership. Not only does he wholeheartedly support his staff, he also serves others through various charities every year.

At Soliant, strong work ethic does not go unnoticed. Hard work is recognized and rewarded. Company morale remains high. Seemingly small things, like providing free drinks, offer additional incentives for employees to strive to do their best, as they feel appreciated.
Professional development and training is of the highest quality, and results in improving employee effectiveness.

Success at Soliant is dependent upon an employee’s willingness to support the company vision and personal motivation and dedication to the job.

Cons – The growth of a company may lead to changes in policies and procedures.
 With a home office in New York and corporate expectations funneling down to
 subsidiaries, maintaining individual company policies and procedures
 becomes a challenge. As the home office generalizes policies and
 procedures to fit all subsidiaries, lines blur between an individual
 company’s traditional dos and don’ts. The result can be a home office’s
 tendency to remain neutral leading to a culture of political correctness,
 rather than allowing individual subsidiaries to keep personal identities.
 My concern is we will become too politically correct and lose focus of
 the founding principles that made us the company we are today.

Advice to Senior Management – Soliant’s success is a direct result of the consistency in the core values
 and principles modeled for years by President David Alexander. My
 suggestion is we remain true to the values and principles, and committed to
 the mission and vision in which the company was founded resulting in our
 current success.

Current Employee – been working at Soliant Health full-time for more than 7 years

Pros – There are many healthcare firms to work for today but Soliant is clearly the leader. I have worked for several in past years and I can say without reservation this is the finest overall. The training is second to none that is avaliable to help the new trainee to start from a strong base. Furthermore the seasoned veteran can also pick up new tid bits to make their desk be more successful. There is weekly training for the entire company that gives new insights to our business as well as taking the time to refresh and revisit the basics of our business on a regular basis.

Cons – The Drive. 20 miles from home to office takes me from 50 minutes up to 80 minutes on rare instances. But that is Atlanta traffic for you. On occasion you must deal with client candidate situations that can become tense and can cause you to loose focus of the big picture. If you can keep the broad view in focus you can work thru any issue that arrises.

Advice to Senior Management – Whenever possible it is always encouraging to see promotions from within. I would encourage management to encourage its employees to bring ideas to the forefront and recognize those folks who do so. There could very well be an idea inside of an employee that when tested and polished could be the next cutting edge program in the healthcare industry.

Current Employee – been working at Soliant Health full-time for more than 10 years

Pros – This company offers a positive work environment, a chance to earn a lot of commission and healthy activities outside of work. People in the office are usually friendly, energetic, and upbeat. Soliant provides unlimited coffee and soda at no charge for employees. Soliant hosts annual events for employees such as bowling, golf, kickball, cycling, 5 mile run, and more. Participation is optional if you do not like an activity. The annual December holiday-brunch-party features delicious food, gift exchanges, and company choir for entertainment. The company hires a lot of recent college graduates and has office-wide training sessions twice weekly. They stay on top of market trends and are a leader in healthcare staffing.

Cons – The work can be very challenging and require a lot of determination, mental toughness, delayed gratification, and willingness to succeed. However, sometimes your luck at getting with the right group and having a split partner on sales plays a greater role on who succeeds.

Former Employee – worked at Soliant Health full-time for more than a year

Pros – The culture is often a reason why people stay. The organizational structure is very flat for a growing company with great people in great location. The culture is highly relational with approachable management and open communication.

Cons – Training for new hires is one of Soliant's greatest challenges due to it's fast-paced environment. If you are not an assertive person when trying to learn from others, the first several months may be very difficult.

Advice to Senior Management – As the company goes through its growing pains, it will be important to pay attention to small details; and continue to foster a culture where feedback is welcomed.

Former Employee – worked at Soliant Health full-time for more than 3 years

Pros – Wonderful co-workers, great co-workers, nice janitors, decent training

Cons – The worst managers ever. The worst commission/salary. Lofty goals that can never be reached. Zero career development. No leadership, just micromanagement and petty rules that change weekly. No warnings or timeline as to termination. One day you will show up and be fired. You find office politics anywhere but it is excessive at Soliant. Managers pick favorites and rules are bent or made advantageous to the favorites in the office. Yeah there is no cap on the commission but the commission is close to impossible to accumulate. My first commission check was around $25 and I had placed two full time workers. Soliant will provide a paycheck and serve as a resume builder. Thats about it. Oh and the Christmas party is pretty good. Make sure and quit after that.

Advice to Senior Management – Not sure management would even know how to take advice or if they would care. Most of them are bull headed and have tenure with the company. They are not going anywhere and have no plans to improve.

Former Employee – worked at Soliant Health as a contractor for less than a year

Pros – A very good company if they have open projects. I worked for them in a couple different pharmacies. They were very helpful when they had contracts. I really enjoyed the projects I worked on with them.

Cons – When work slowed down on their end they just didn't call me and wouldn't return my calls. It was frustrating when I was expecting work and suddenly couldn't get in touch with them.

Advice to Senior Management – It would be nice If I could have been contacted when no work could be found.

Current Employee – been working at Soliant Health

Pros – Lots of training / stress sharpening of the saw!
Unlimited potential for income with commission structure ( no caps)
provide us recruiters with resources and tthe technology we need to be successful
Upper management lead with integrity and reward fairly
Organize sports and social events outside of office
Participate in giving back to the community

Cons – Benefits are good but more expensive than last year
Sales/marketing environment so if you get off to slow start, its hard to succeed

Advice to Senior Management – Dont let up on the training - even experienced salespeople need to be reminded of the fundamentals.

Former Employee – worked at Soliant Health

Pros – Lots of training initially, followed by a lot of freedom with higher management readily available to step in when needed. Additionally, the people are incredibly friendly there and enthusiastic for the most part.

Cons – They have set expectations sales wise. If they are not met, then you are gone. Other disadvantages depend on which 'team' you get placed in. The success that what you'll be doing each day really depends on which group your hired into (Schools, Locums, Nursing, Medical Coding, etc.). Likewise, there are various 'pods' within each group, and if your group is successful, then you are too. It helps to be in the know, if that makes sense.

Advice to Senior Management – The Leadership is good - they are encouraging and available. When you are first hired, they take a lot of time to train you, but the expectancy is that once you are trained, that you must hit the ground running and make a lot of deals very quickly. It's sink are swim.

Current Employee – been working at Soliant Health

Pros – Great atmosphere, positive management and great opportunities

Cons – Would be beneficial if they stayed open later -- maybe 7:00. Provide employee lunches for high performers once a month (brought in by a local deli).

Advice to Senior Management – The leadership could do less training/meetings for the high performers. Perhaps have high performers do more training for new hires. Overall give more responsibilities to those that are high performers.

Current Employee – been working at Soliant Health

Pros – Commission structure rewards production as it rises.
Lots of autonomy at your desk
Interdepartmental social events throughout the year
Mid Day exercise encouraged
Work/Life Balance promoted
Flexible work hours available
Repeat business and long term relationships with clients and RNs
My departments works great together even with us all being pretty independent

Cons – Your product is a person working, and people sometimes have issues; things you can't control effecting your production.
The emotional rollercoaster - but is manageable
Training could be a little better for new hires - but a good level of "finding your own way" is still required to succeed & make it work.
Work habits of some could be improved to raise level & quality of production; I think too much autonomy is given sometimes.

Advice to Senior Management – I think management is extremely fair and promotes a good work environment. They can't do your job for you though, and it does take a lot of work. I would encourage more focus in training on professional practices and general business ettiquette.
