Pros

Opportunity to contribute to bettering the lives of patients. We actually do make a difference!

Cons

All current employees must sit down with their management and ask if their jobs are going to be affected by EMI. We have heard that EMI is going to expand our market into emerging markets. This is a good thing. What is not being said is that 500 to 800 jobs are going to be outsourced to India beginning this summer. Your manager may not give you a straight answer but it is better to protect yourself and your family by starting your job search now.

Pros

Good pay. Good benefits. My coworkers who were at the same level as me were supportive.

Cons

Work environment was highly stressful and often unsustainable. Management created a culture where employees were frequently overworked, undervalued, and burned out. Communication from leadership was inconsistent and their expectations changed frequently. Work-life balance was very poor. Employee concerns did not get taken seriously unless they directly impacted company performance. When an HR compliant involving my supervisor was filed for his behavior with input from the majority of the team members, no meaningful action was taken beyond stating it was handled "per BSC policy". Opportunities for promotion and career advancement were limited. Employees who treated others poorly were often still rewarded or praised as long as performance metrics were met. There was a clear culture of favoritism and hierarchy, and employees outside of those circles could work above and beyond expectations without receiving recognition or advancement opportunities. In 2 years, there were 12 employees who were fired in a 10 person department.
