Pros

Medical Benefits are great but come with a price. Pay is good but not in terms of increases over a long of time in wages compared to increases in starting wage.

Cons

15 years ago this was a great place to work. Felt like its own small town. Like all workplaces there were ups and downs but largely positive. Now, employees are held hostage by health insurance but at what cost? Perks in jobs like hybrid remote work and schedule flexibility are given, life adjustments made, and then taken away with little to no reason or notice given. Employees are constantly have words like work family and culture pounded into them while simultaneously being reminded that they are completely replaceable. I left this company and now that time has passed, I cannot believe the unrealized toxicity of working in that environment. I never even noticed how it affected my demeanor and mood in all life aspects. The final compromise is the overall community we live in and they effect DK healthcare has on the rest of the population not employed by them. For instance: our clinic knows a large number of their patients have that insurance plan and it covers all costs with almost no question. So lab work at our clinic cost up to TWICE as much as other area town clinics in the same Sanford chain. The rest of the population who has the normal copay percentages and deductibles pays the price if that.

Pros

Great team and awesome supervisor, flexible hours. The people I work with day to day are the best

Cons

The company seems to be cutting costs at employees' expense. Poor pay, minimal pay increases as cost of living continues to rise, poor leadership, no opportunities to grow and benefits have significantly decreased over the last couple years making it less appealing to stay long term.
