Vantaggi

They pay high salaries and are very competitive in this area.

Svantaggi

For prescriptions you must meet the $2,800 deductible before brand-name items are paid at all. Also generics are not cheap until deductible is met. All ADHD medicine is too expensive. Even the generic for Concerta it is $700 for 90 day supply. At a previous employer the brand-name for it was $76.00 for 90 day. Doctor visits are by percentage, not copay. Only 80% is paid when the $1,600 deductible is met first. I had a surgery and it cost me $1,600 out of pocket because my deductible was not met. Recently, antibiotic ear drops that my doctor prescribed were $200 and I was not able to get them for my ear infection. Luckily an Antibiotic pill worked, but I am still having issues so perhaps the drops would have been better.

Vantaggi

Current Leadership: The management structure has stabilized significantly, and my current supervisor is excellent—supportive, engaged, and great to work with. Excellent Team Culture: The coworkers here are fantastic. There is a strong sense of camaraderie, and the team is incredibly supportive. Strong Compensation & Growth: The base pay is competitive and fair, and there is excellent opportunity for extra pay and overtime. From a professional development standpoint, I have learned an immense amount in my field over the past year. Enjoyable Travel: Excellent opportunities for work-related travel that adds great variety to the day-to-day routine.

Svantaggi

Management Inconsistency Early On: My first supervisor took zero interest in team well-being, or development and the second had significant temperament issues that ultimately led to their departure. While it has been resolved now, Apparently management here like a lot of places is hit and miss. Heavy Workload: The workload can feel a bit overwhelming and intense at times. Striking a consistent work-life balance remains a challenge under the current demands. Role Expectation Mismatch: Some of the technical responsibilities and projects I have handled since joining were not clearly outlined or explained during the interview process. Navigating these unstated expectations alongside an already heavy workload has been a significant challenge.
