Pros
Managers and co-workers are nice; Information sharing is pretty effective within the company; They do pay attention to personal professional development.
Cons
The biggest dissatisfaction is the low pay, except which, I couldn't come up with any others. Besides, benefit package is pretty fine!
Advice to Senior Management
I like my manager's leadership style. He focus on his employees' personal development, and offers opportunities according to your professional goal. That's pretty nice!
Pros
Great departmental leadership in many areas
Strong brand in market
Individual executives very knowledgeable in their areas
Open door policies with many directors
Cons
Executives as a whole lack strategy for the company
Sunquest is currently a cash cow for the venture capitalist firm that controls it, so no long term vision with executive leadership (although some recent moves suggest otherwise)
Temp Connection agency for interns is horrible
Advice to Senior Management
Push back against Vista and gain some long term strategy (no more acquisitions)
Pros
The office is friendly and the people are great. If you like a modern office out in the countryside then it is a pleasant environment to work in.
Cons
I do not think the management know what they are doing. The staff turnover rate is very high, and people leave because they do not like what is going on. It is too hard to actualy get work done. You may get a manager from another country or timezone trying to manage you. They only take on new inexperieced staff.
Advice to Senior Management
Stop changing everything once a year for no good reason. Listen to your staff before they all leave, taking years of experiwnce with them.
Pros
facing new challenges during development
Cons
low pay-scale and working on MUMPS
Advice to Senior Management
none
Pros
Business process analysis for quality validation
Cons
Communication among employees is not effective
Pros
Decent location in the Williams Centre, new building with LOTS of empty cubicle space due to layoffs gym, cafeteria, good co-workers.
Cons
Clueless senior leadership. Look the other way mentality while management and above skirt ethical and moral boundaries on a daily basis. Promoting people to a Director position who have absolutely no relevant work experience. The pay seems decent, until you go somewhere else. A history of layoffs that leave employees feeling as if someone will tap them on the shoulder to tell them their services are no longer needed. Replaces laid off employees with wet behind the ears college grads who have absolutely no relevant industry or work experience. Sunquest Information Systems has some good employees who are treated poorly by management, not to mention they have a very bad reputation in Tucson. Their pre-screen test is highly suspect.
Advice to Senior Management
Stop treating employees like dirt. Fire all Directors and above, and the managers those directors have hired. Start treating the employees with respect.
Pros
Coworkers are great
Benefits range from standard to better than the standard
Pay (or at least used to be, that may have changed)
Interesting work
Cons
Experienced people replaced with cheaper people with little to no experience
Management are mostly not from within the industry so are unaware of the needs of the clients and, therefore, the needs of the employees to meet those needs.
Advice to Senior Management
Replace management from the top down. There is incompetency and lack of concern for anything but the bottom-line within management and this starts at the top.
Pros
Hours are reasonable
Many opportunities to learn
Autonomous
Cons
Chaotic HR processes
Frequent low and mid-level management turnover
Discontect between remote executives and line-level employees
No cost-of living raises
Limited raises despite profitability and cash flow
Low investment in staff
Hire from outside mentality (due to low investment in existing staff)
Focus on short-term revenue and profit
Advice to Senior Management
The leadership is doing what it is paid to do - maximize short-term increases in the numbers
Pros
Front line staff very passionate about their jobs and client satisfaction.
First line managers very caring and receptive to employees.
Cons
Very little room for growth.
Tends to shuffle things, for the sake of change, regardless of outcomes or need.
Advice to Senior Management
You're not always right. There are a variety of viewpoints, and all should be considered fully. Once it's determined things are not working as they should, re-evaluate and make changes based on the facts.
Pros
Work life balance is good and team members are good
Cons
Professional growth is not there, Salary is not good,
Advice to Senior Management
Recognize people, who deserves it.
