Pros

Saving lives! Our donors make the madness almost worth it.

Cons

Executive leadership has no clue!! Talent is leaving this place in droves!!! Employees are penalized because the general public is not donating blood like they did in years past! Instead of making the neccesary adjustments, we are expected to drag donors to the beds kicking and screaming to meet the need. I TOTALLY understand that there are lives at stake, but if you run off all of your talent, then what?? There is NO WORK LIFE BALANCE WHAT SO EVER!! You are expected to be available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week!!! Our lack of adequate equipment is laughable! They have tweaked the incentive program to ensure no one makes it. If I hit all targets but my teammates don't - I am penalized by not getting my incentive. We have teammates who have not got a single target in well over 18 months!
