Vantaggi
Senior Management is very focused on patient care, they trust clinical staff to do what they do best and what they love to do. Sacramento Vitas is really good at keeping to their first value 'Patients and Families Come First'. Senior management and HR care about the employees ensuring they get the training and tools they need to care for patients.
Svantaggi
Employees of VITAS are not valued at the corporate level - management in Sacramento and at other VITAS locations are limited in what they can do - the pay is way below market standard for all positions and pay freezes (for 2 years now) make it difficult for employees to make ends meet. Benefits have been cut each year for the last 5 years. There is very limited opportunity for growth and zero work life balance. High expectations without a high return.
