Pros

No pros anymore. It was a good organization until 2010.

Cons

Many cons. No advancement hierarchy. Business driven management and directors with zero leadership game, hardly any with an HTM background at all. Treating healthcare like a business is a failing model. Trimedx now has a reputation in the biomedical tech world as a hire-and-fire organization and no one is making an effort to fix that. Clinical/biomedical engineering departments are just as well off to have their own hospital leadership run their shops because neither them nor Trimedx leadership fully understands what the techs do. Trimedx just makes them follow their already flawed metrics and KPI's. When a member of the staff leaves, hiring a replacement is a slow process if it happens at all. Mostly the former employee's workload will be spread across the remaining tech staff and no replacement will be hired. Techs' suggestions fall on deaf ears. Revolving door on central office leadership is also a problem. Constant critiquing of technician work quality yet their own procurement staff can't even arrange a UPS ground shipment out in a timely fashion (a problem going back quite a few years).

Being with the organization for over a decade, we’re certain there are a lot of things you’ve experienced. Our hope is that you did have some positive experiences, and that those are what kept you at TRIMEDX beyond 10 years. You’re right in that we’ve not been perfect, but we are working towards a better future. Our new executive leadership team that believes in the associate voice and we’re diligently working through feedback received during our annual Associate Engagement Survey. We’ve already made some changes based on associate feedback and have established plans for future changes. Additionally, we’ve launched Continuous Improvement efforts within the organization this year to help facilitate process improvement and positively impact all areas of the business. We would welcome additional feedback on where we can improve. If you decide you’d like a conversation, please reach out to a member of HR.

Pros

Healthcare benefits and pto accrual

Cons

Site manager had no supervision skills and a bad attitude. Continuously spread drama between employees, discussed salaries between technicians. Gave annual and biannual performance reviews but promotions and raises were not based on performance. Raises were biased and to employees favored by site manager. Empty promises to retain employees. No standards and a concerning tolerance for laziness in which work was passed off to more productive employees. Lead technicians were given tasks of supervising lazy employees and asked to deal with it. Ultimately making non-supervision compensated employees responsible for their actions. Supervisors had very concerning language and profanity to technician's. All is all, could be a great job but management and lack of support from HR makes it a hostile work environment. Lack of training, asked to complete maintenance and repairs on equipment without proper training. No opportunities for advancement within the company.
