Pros

Coworkers are great and only decent part of the job.

Cons

Communication skills are lacking. Management is political and incestuous. Pay is not great and when Shopko got involved the benefits were lackluster. HR goes behind you back and shows your concerns to your manager. Management is also not great with confrontation and escalates situations. Huge layoffs as well. Lots of instability and lack of care for employees.

Pros

The company wants you to succeed for them too as well. They listen to suggestions on improvement. Hourly pay means great work life balance.

Cons

ODA responsibilities vary with each OD. There isn’t room for growth/ promotions in this position.

Pros

The Union and union benefits. The health package is great and the only decent thing about working here. I liked being in a union for this reason.

Cons

Managers will berate you and make you feel stupid, you will be treated worse by patients than you will by customers working in a bar, calling insurances is tedious, paid only $15/hr when I worked there (not sure if it changed) and the rest of your pay is commission only. Commission wasn’t for me because it felt weird trying to upsell people in healthcare. This company makes you book Medicaid patients out far in advance but when a patient with better insurance calls they’ll get you in next week. Advice to anyone who is currently on Medicaid- go to Henry Ford Optimeyes instead. We had a patient get violent and had to let him back in which was insane. The company prides itself on giving in to this mistreatment. If you’re new you will have to travel to EVERY LOCATION in your district, sometimes 40 minutes away, on a moments notice. Sometimes you’ll be scheduled there, sometimes they’ll tell you that morning, sometimes literally in the middle of the workday you have to leave and drive to another store. Only positive about that was my location was the worst of the worst. If you click in at 9:01 even once it’s a write up, if it’s from traveling they make you “dispute it”. This company sucks.
