Pros

I can't think of any pros for the organization that blatantly cheats and misleads its prospective employees into a doldrum. This review is only applicable for the PACS L1 support team. Candidates are kept in the dark regarding the working days of the week and the shift hours. They are made to work in graveyard shifts during weekends without any benefit whatsoever.

Cons

Here goes the long list of cons applicable for the PACS L1 support team. 1. Lack of transparency on the shift timings. 2. Lack of transparency on the working days. After joining the team, told that the team works 24/7 including weekends and hence made us to work on weekends. 3. lack of basic facility provided during night shifts and on weekends. - No cafeteria access, No night shift allowance, No vending machine and neither does the milk get replenished to have a cup of tea/coffee to keep ourselves awake. 4. Lack of transparency on the job function. Hired people of software development background into a call center process. This was a horrendous experience after which my health and personal life took a severe beating.

Pros

Size and strength if they figure out what to do with it

Cons

Almost everything, since management and the company as a whole, is run so poorly. The FDA is still pounding on Healthcare and RIFTS are common. They haven't released Spect or CT products from the FDA since 2011... yea 2011. The new CT is just a rebranded Brilliance.

Pros

Good pay, good group of people working in associate/specialist roles

Cons

Horrible Frontline management, from Director down to Supervisor. Very much a "gotcha" type of environment; overly concerned with matrix/numbers, not the input, well-being of employees. No such thing as coaching.

Hello, we're glad to hear that you found a great group of people to work with. We do regret hearing that your experience with management has not been a positive one though. We would like to suggest you talk to your HR representative about this. And thank you for your feedback on all counts and for all the work your're doing for us.
