Pros

Paid training free for you. A lot of knowledge. Benefits (are not that good) but at least you have options.

Cons

No work or life balance. 14 hrs on your feet. You have to pay your 1/2 hr. breaks. A lot of work. Non stop and very demanding for $14.50 to $15.50 the hr. The expectations are that after 9 weeks you became an expert and flip 3 patients in 15min. Per patient. Impossible without a huge risk of cross infections (very usual) and worst if you don't have any previous experience. If you are not from the Philippines it's going to be hard because they exclude and help there ones... yes, a disgrace. You have to do a lot of online training at home or you will regretted. It's a lot of hours and they expect you to do it (another thing they don't tell you) without pay at home. If you insists to work there, get the experience and go some place else.

Pros

Depending on location and your clinic, leadership team is incredibly supportive, which keeps the day-to-day work environment relatively stress-free. Having the independence to manage your own scheduling also allows for an excellent work-life balance.

Cons

The initial onboarding and training programs are highly disorganized and lack substance. Additionally, standard pay raises are quite low and do not feel competitive relative to the workload and current market value.
