A culture built on toxicity, miscommunication, and no accountability - Operations Ascendco Employee Review

Unlike most tedious data jobs, this one takes technical analysis that make my days fly by. Bringing the data to life with analytics allows me to see my work and the benefits it is bringing to the sterile processing and surgical industry.

40 hours in a week often isn’t enough time to get what you want to get done.

I can truly say that everyone I’ve worked with at Ascendco really believes in the mission and are incredibly supportive in ensuring mutual success for everyone. There is not a “totem pole” structure and I feel confident (and encouraged) to reach out to leadership for feedback & support. Even as an entry level employee, you are encouraged to take ownership of what you’re doing and are able to exhibit flexibility into pursuing your ideas. The co-founders are very involved in the mission and are aware of all initiatives and day-to-day tasks of employees and are always there to provide support. Specifically in the Chicago office, we have a very collaborative culture which makes it really easy to work cross-functionally. Everyone is very open to new ideas and always encouraging feedback on your role which sets the stage for high growth opportunities. As someone who thrives on doing something different everyday and being myself at work, I love that I’m encouraged to experiment to try new things and am allowed the flexibility to determine what my day-to-day looks like.

This is a high ownership culture so you have the ability to be pretty self-directed. Ascendco has consistently grown a lot both with new health systems and new products/features always launching so you have to be a quick learner and be comfortable learning as you go.
