Pros
They desperately need me so they can't quite fire me without a cause.
Cons
Where to begin? Poor management: they like to have team meetings that make you feel like you're "part of the village" and your voice is heard but the reality is your managers hands are tied by their manager who only thinks of money and doesn't care that all the staff are new and the only veterans can't quit because of legal reasons or other personal circumstances. I think this is an intentional hiring technique to combat their terrible turnover without affecting how much they have to pay us. Which brings me to number two... The pay: I have been working for davita since June 2008 and I have less than .75 cents a year to show for it... davita promises you a dollar at the very least when you get your certification but guess what when you get that cert they tell you that you haven't contributed enough and so begins the long long train of lies and poor business practices. Truly the only reason I've stuck around is I planned on taking part in their tuition reimbursement to become a nurse and further my career in dialysis but seeing how little these companies care for the patient and for their employees who make their yachts possible has made me see I need to get out of the medical field all together. I hope this helps you see the true nature of this evil company. Stay home with your parents and get your nursing degree you'll thank me later!
