Pros
Travel and yes, this is the only Pro I could think about
Cons
paycheck mistakes, misleading or flat our liars for representatives, poor housing, poor pay, expensive yet poor benefits, inconsistency, poor management, poor communication and poor business practices I must say that I was placed in an awesome laboratory with great Technologists, but my experience with my employer was horrid. In 8 months they have changed the travelers handbook thrice, have made extensive promises they can not keep and place traveling professionals in substandard places to live. If you get a paycheck that is accurate consider yourself lucky and expect to get nickled and dimed to death. I have had two different "managers" covering my assignment both of which have no idea what a Medical Technologist does other than we work in a lab. No one at CompHealth has made a visit to this work site or ever performed a face to face with this client but seem to think they know everything about the area, living and social conditions and environment you are being placed. You would think such a successful business would have a QA department or atleast a provider support department instead of giving us a "manager" that has no clue. Traveling to a strange place with no support system other than your "manager" means placing a lot of trust in someone you dont know and this company doesnt understand that concept...they are our life line and at times never even return your phone call. If you are not a Doctor or working for a contact that is paying CompHealth top dollar beware of the support and service you receive or lack there of.
