The only way to get a raise it to threaten to quit - Pct DaVita Employee Review

Where to start. At least 6 techs have left my facility in the past 6 months. Retention throughout Denver is abysmal because the work is too demanding for the $15 starting pay. There is not enough incentive to pick up shifts at other clinics and the differential for doing so isn't worth it. No 6 month review or pay increase. Want more money? Threaten to quit or apply to ARA. Average raise is maybe $0.50 for a year. They will reimburse you for CCHT exam, but the raise it comes with is a pitiful $0.50. That isn't even worth the hassle of becoming certified! Tuition reimbursement ONLY begins if you register for classes AFTER 90 days of employment. Also, tuition reimbursement ($3k a calendar year) is becoming way more restrictive, only applying for degree seeking student in business or nursing. Meaning your nursing pre-reqs aren't covered unless you are degree seeking and can prove it. RODs (your boss' boss) are no where to be seen.
