Pros

22 Days of PTO + 8 holidays for new hires < 3 years, 27 days of PTO + 8 holidays for >5 years Working from home policy (two days a week) It use to be really attractive, but Company is changing this policy (they said they are not), it is diminishing. The company is going through some major shifting. Beware of those reviews from ST Louis MO, some managers that are hiring put them there. LOL The work life balance is good.

Cons

The pay is below the market once you are hired, they only get you a 2% raise most of the time after that and hardly any opportunities for promotions, some layoffs here and there. So if you really want the job here, negotiate it HARD. You will stuck to that salary for many years to come. This is the rule for many companies as well, not just the Ascension Technologies. 401K match 3.5% for new hires.

Pros

The patient population can be very rewarding to work with, and there can be lots of different job opportunities but very limited advancement with mainly lateral department shifts if a person is looking for change.

Cons

Raises are almost non-existent. The "raise" is a yearly COLA of between 2%-3%. There is no ability to talk to anyone regarding a raise, even the admin staff are fully stonewalled in the overlly corporate monolithic HR style of maintaining "fair" wages. I have worked here for several years and I actually earn less now because my "raises" do not keep up with inflation and the actual cost of living. They maintain their functionality on squeezing as much as they can out of one employer by slowly shifting more job responsibilities called "opportunities" onto you without extra pay or change in title that would get a pay increase. They look to higher level licensed staff to provide more coverage for roles that they won't hire for or cut in departments. They do "organizational restructuring" every 6 months because more staff quit, they don't replace the staff, and tell others to absorb the former FT employees job responsibilities without pay increase and being told not to go into OT.
