Pros

Exposure to healthcare Some frontline staff are friendly and supportive. Paid time off was reasonable.

Cons

The company constantly repeats the phrase "All for one", which sounds great in theory but feels completely hollow in practice. It's used more like a branding slogan than a genuine cultural value. Daily huddles and meetings felt forced and awkward, seemingly done for show rather than for building real team cohesion. Management acts differently in group settings versus one-to-one interactions- polite in public, but dismissive, micromanaging, and overly critical in private. Priorities are often unclear. Tasks are pushed down without context, support, or development opportunities. There is little interest in helping you grow - it’s all about output. Feedback is one-sided - criticism is loud and frequent, but appreciation is almost non-existent. You are held accountable for delays even when blockers are external or outside your control. It often felt like gaslighting. Process was disorganized, with shifting expectations and vague feedback until the very end.

Pros

- The training is paid.

Cons

- The Facility Manager (FA) and your Preceptor will openly lie to you to see how you respond. - You will also be constantly reminded that you will most likely be terminated. - The FA will pull you into a meeting and ask you inappropriate questions about your age, family, and social life. - You will be marked as "Under performing" if you show any emotion or not enough emotion. - They skirt around the number of hours you will be working. - You do not receive the required breaks for working 15 hour shifts. - You will constantly be told you are not doing this for the money, and that is true, The pay is horrible for everything you are put through and expected to do.
