Pros

I met some remarkable people--patients, their families, and a few coworkers.

Cons

When I started working for Davita in 2004, everything seemed to center on the patient. We gave excellent care no matter what the circumstances. By the time I left in 2010, we were cutting corners every way possible to meet a steadily lower "cost-per-treatment" goal. Patient care, staff-patient relations, and staff-staff relations were sacrificed to meet that goal. Employees who questioned that were deliberately marginalized.

Pros

Patient connections is rewarding work, great hands on experience, paid on the job training, training for PCTs is at least consistent.

Cons

12+ hour long hours, emotionally and physically taxing, unqualified management, poor communication, inconsistent scheduling, high turn over, very little amount of opportunity for movement within the company despite preaching that they encourage it. The culture and values are heavily spoken about with little to no enforcement. The position requires significant dedication to learn all the moving parts of the clinic.
