Pros

I truly believe the majority of people who work for SCAN believe in the mission and try to exemplify it as much as possible. They often promote from within and the pay for clinically licensed professionals is competitive.

Cons

Silos within departments result in duplication of work and poor interdepartmental communication. Senior leadership within some departments (specifically Healthcare Services) is a clique-ish group who all vie for the attention of the Senior VP. There is a good deal of favoritism and decision are often made based on emotion as opposed to what is best for business. If you are in the 'inner circle' you can pretty much get away with anything. There are Managers and Directors who somehow manage to spend 8+ hours a day doing nothing at all. Pay for lower level employees is sup-par and the company operates as if it's profits are poor (there was not one offsite Christmas party during all the years I was employed there) yet the CEO makes over $1M/year and GM's make over $500K/year. SCAN has seen an incredible amount of employee turnover in the last 2 years.

• I learned to have empathy for our clients. • I acquired leadership skills too. • Proper balance of independence and support • on the job • Guidance from the higher-ups • Policies are updated regularly to be more in tune with employees’ needs. • 4-day workweek (I get Mondays and Tuesdays off.) • Fair salary and perks like hybrid setup, tuition reimbursement, and wellness benefits.

Cons

It’s stressful to handle grievances and appeals. You must have the stamina if you want this kind of job.

Pros

You will learn how to chase numbers. It can be a useful skill to learn. It can also be completely draining.

Cons

This place is filled with arrogant, incredibly nasty, and disrespectful people. Sadly, those people hold all the power. Here, your value is reduced to metrics and numbers. The pressure is suffocating and can destroy your peace of mind. Do not let a job consume you. Be warned!
