Pros

Paid training free for you. A lot of knowledge. Benefits (are not that good) but at least you have options.

Cons

No work or life balance. 14 hrs on your feet. You have to pay your 1/2 hr. breaks. A lot of work. Non stop and very demanding for $14.50 to $15.50 the hr. The expectations are that after 9 weeks you became an expert and flip 3 patients in 15min. Per patient. Impossible without a huge risk of cross infections (very usual) and worst if you don't have any previous experience. If you are not from the Philippines it's going to be hard because they exclude and help there ones... yes, a disgrace. You have to do a lot of online training at home or you will regretted. It's a lot of hours and they expect you to do it (another thing they don't tell you) without pay at home. If you insists to work there, get the experience and go some place else.

Pros

Management supports a work-life balance, hours are flexible, okay benefits. Good training opportunities and there is effort by management to support a good work culture. 6 weeks at 80% of pay Paternity/Maternity & Adoption leave. 401K with 6% matching. For 2 adults, we pay for Davita's Anthem BCBS healthcare plan and it is $350/month (4,700 deductible).

Cons

Payscale isn't aggressive - 1% raise each year. You also may be asked to cover other clinics temporarily without fair compensation for the extra workload.
