Pros
The staff was pretty cool. I'm still friends with a few of them.
Cons
The other reviews seem to have the problems with the management structure down. I got a few laughs from those. Thanks guys. My main problem, potentially leading to my resigning, was the fact that they didn't seem to care one bit about the health hazards pertaining to the blood supply. The main factor in that is a combination of poor training and lack of knowledge in senior, supposedly experienced staff. I wonder how many bags of blood were considered "good enough" when I wasn't there to inform my colleagues that the product is, in fact, contaminated and potentially fatal to the recipient. I tried though. I tried to report it to management and attempted to "initiate a problem," but was essentially told that a problem isn't a problem unless it's a "problem." That is, when it's "investigated." The funny thing is, I never saw an investigation or, at the very least, a clarifying memo to explain the procedure to the ignorant staff that refused to listen to me. (Best part: after six years of employment, I ended up with a relapse into a severe anxiety disorder that inevitably made me stop going to work altogether. I got myself some help and attempted to reapply, but have seemingly been blacklisted from any and all Red Cross departments.)
