Pros

Excellent hospital locations, some great support staff, wonderful online resources, easy billing system (although sometimes a bit slow and limited function on mobile devices).

Cons

Difficult to understand rationale for classifying workers as 1099 when all aspects of work are fully controlled by TH including when to work, where to work, how to work, number of hours expected to work (full time), etc, especially when all your expenses are paid for by Team Health except their responsibility to pay for your benefits and their portion of taxes. When I inquired why hospitalists on the west coast were classified as independent contractors as opposed to physicians on the east coast who are employees (in the context of multiple payroll errors and not receiving my full paycheck in a timely manner), I was suspiciously terminated without cause (allegedly due to the way I handled the payroll repayment). Regardless, I will never be satisfied with a company who has no remorse for not rectifying a payroll error in a timely manner.
