Pros

Supervisors are flexible if something comes up and you need to change your schedule around Job security Diverse workplace

Cons

Below average pay Constant mandatory overtime so work life balance is nonexistent Understaffed Poor training process Poor management Upper management does not care about the technologists working in the lab Extremely repetitive boring work You will constantly be in pain if you work in the lab because they do not care about ergonomics Extreme burnout is common Takes MONTHS for raises and promotions to be processed Supervisors play favorites with employees and put a majority of the workload on just a couple of people Takes 5+ years to even be eligible for a team lead position Yearly raises are next to nothing Benefits are below average, especially for a healthcare company Upper management is only concerned about numbers rather than employees and patients. They are extremely disconnected from what it’s like working in the lab Extremely high turnover

Pros

None whatsoever. Everything they advertise as a pro has fineprint that renders it completely useless.

Cons

Wish I could have given zero stars, 1 star feels like lying. The most important thing is that they will mess you over without a second thought. For those who may have just started at the company, quit now before they mess you over. Don't be deceived by the benefits they advertise. Don't think you're valued because they will turn on you the second keeping you as part of the team inconveniences them. They don't pay fairly and blow off people who need to make a living. On top of trash pay, the work environment will have you hating what you do even while you're actively helping people. At PSCs, you're severely overworked and under a microscope. As an IOP, you're underappreciated and taken advantage of. The way they do business is very shady. They constantly have lawsuits against them, Google it. I saw the reviews and didn't listen because I thought a bad job was better than no job in this economy. I was so wrong. For your own mental health, and overall finances, don't work here. EVER. There are other jobs out there that pay fairly and aren't toxic. I found one and am so happy because I could have been trapped in a company going nowhere. Now I am paid what I'm worth and growing in my career, not just stuck choosing between being a phlebotomist, float or a high-stress supervisor. Just wait for a better job. I promise, the trash pay and stress are NOT worth the gas you'll waste driving all over the place even when you're not a float. Just don't do it.
