Vantaggi
Pretty straight training system. You do learn and can advance if you work hard.. If you like to work independently you have that option also. You can be left alone to work for the most part. If you just wanna work and keep your head down you can do that. Plenty OT when its busy.
Svantaggi
Underpaid! Big time. Starting is 39 bucks. On calls shift actually becomes a regular night shift each week. Technically you work 3 days and 1 night a week. They try and advertise the 1 on call night a week as STAT only cases but they call you in for routine cases with no night shift differential or night pay. Just you coming at night getting regular pay. They call it on call shift but its really you coming it later to complete the remaining assignments for the fourth shift of your week, not considered OT either. Ruins your sleep patterns and you dont recover because next week here comes another night shift after you've already work 3 days shift. Also schedulers(ppl who information you about new orders) that work in the office get real rude. Not fun being lectured about clinical needs by someone that have zero medical background. Scheduler slowly begin to act like your boss. Its terrible. If you have any sense of independence and experience you will absolutely hate schedulers.
