Pros

DaVita is a well respected company with a big presence in Denver and is rapidly growing. But if I'm being honest the cafeteria and office space are the two best things about this place.

Cons

Leadership tries to cultivate a unique/fun culture, however this gets completely undermined by the actions of management and how employees are treated. Directors and others in leadership roles are often lacking in professionalism and tact. Some prefer passive aggressiveness, while others prefer to berate their reports in front of others for no reason other than to test them. They have a lack luster compensation/benefits package and a strong inclination to hire from the outside rather than promote from within. Unless you have an ivy league MBA and meet the arbitrary threshold for "VP potential" be prepared to churn and burn until you see yourself to the door.

Pros

The local team was great. The FA was the best. She knows how to lead and to build a team. Helping the patients and their families was the best part. Knowing you were helping them improve their quality of life was very rewarding.

Cons

Upper management. All the executives care about is money. All management above the FA level was terrible. Always cutting your hours even though you were full time. People in charge that have absolutely no experience in healthcare. Management and executives who don't understand medicine and how healthcare works or should be. They bully, don't support, and try to find things to get you in trouble. They want the nurses to only use AI instead of thinking and doing what is best for the patients. When I started with DaVita, it was a great place to work. Since the business people took over at the top, it has gone downhill and is simply awful. I do not recommend working here.
