Pros

Get to work with interesting technology, fulfilling doctor and patient interactions, making a tangible impact on peoples' lives.

Cons

If you work in New York City, beware of a sexist and racist team environment driven by an alpha-male sales culture. Sexual harassment and assault by team members and/or customers has been swept under the rug. Frequent racist, sexist, xenophobic, and homophobic remarks are made on team communication platforms. The team is nearly entirely white in the most diverse city in America. There is very FREQUENT turnover of the most talented people every 2-3 years due to the terrible environment and lack of a promotion. The pay is significantly less than other competitors. You will routinely work 12-15 hour days multiple times per week with no pay increase compared to an FCR who works 8 hour days.

Pros

Good pay. Good benefits. My coworkers who were at the same level as me were supportive.

Cons

Work environment was highly stressful and often unsustainable. Management created a culture where employees were frequently overworked, undervalued, and burned out. Communication from leadership was inconsistent and their expectations changed frequently. Work-life balance was very poor. Employee concerns did not get taken seriously unless they directly impacted company performance. When an HR compliant involving my supervisor was filed for his behavior with input from the majority of the team members, no meaningful action was taken beyond stating it was handled "per BSC policy". Opportunities for promotion and career advancement were limited. Employees who treated others poorly were often still rewarded or praised as long as performance metrics were met. There was a clear culture of favoritism and hierarchy, and employees outside of those circles could work above and beyond expectations without receiving recognition or advancement opportunities. In 2 years, there were 12 employees who were fired in a 10 person department.
