Pros

Benefits and vacation time are good. Fellow co workers are good people to work with

Cons

Overall pay is horrible. For all the work and pressure that phlebotomists are put under I expected a lot more. Although I love my job, the pay is not sitting well with me. Not only are we under pressure from patients, but also our management from getting our "daily draws" (we are expected to draw a certain amount of people a day), keep wait times 2o minutes and under, etc. You really can't help but feel pressure and like you're walking on eggshells when you get back an "error'. You really do not feel like you are appreciated at work and are given back more negative feedback from management than positive.

Pros

Pay is higher than most in the area. Hours are good. Benefits are good.

Cons

It’s very difficult to get time off for anything, regardless of how much vacation time you have. Only 15% of those hours will carry over and you lose what you’ve worked for and weren’t able to use. Not enough floats to cover the territory so people can actually get time off. Pay raises aren’t very good.
