Pros

Consistency is services, benefits and pay

Cons

Management is subpar in some areas. Everyone who wants to be a manager should not be.

Pros

Pay is better than hospitals pay for a phlebotomist, if you are a drive lead or trainer.

Cons

Working hours are all over the place, early shifts and late shifts. Travel time can be upwards of an hour on some days. No sick time, they will use your PTO if you call out sick. Can’t take time off without PTO. Over time every week if you are full time. You get 6 call outs a year only approved if you have pto to cover it. If not it’s a point and you have 10 points til your fired. With no real schedule good luck making appointments. It’s like they purposely make it hard to do anything outside of work. You’ll accrue about a days worth of pto in a month plus floating holidays so in a years time you’ll have maybe two weeks to use, just don’t ever get sick or it will be less than that. Work life balance is terrible here.

Pros

The benefits if you are non union is good.

Cons

HR and management are not your allies. They are not consistent with the values and leadership. Nepotism happens. They condone bad behavior on certain employees that they favor.
