Pros

The best part about working at Altum were the people. Everyone was extremely friendly and kind. It was great to come into work everyday knowing there were supportive and encouraging co-workers

Cons

Altum really underpays their staff members. The workload was a lot and this was not reflected in the pay at all. Working at Altum was sort of like working in a sweat shop. However, I did get a lot of experience which I was able to leverage to get a better paying job after 1 year. This would be my advice to everyone who applies to Altum health: be sure to negotiate your pay (b/c they will not give you enough anyways), stay for 1 year or 1.5 years but not more than that, then leverage your experience and get out. Altum uses archaic technology. They can't seem to get it right with their CMS or DADOS systems-incredibly frustrating to use for staff and clients; Together these awful systems slow down business and work progress. Most of my job was trying to work around these systems to get my actual job done. Probably the biggest con to working at Altum health are the deadweight staff that manage to bog down the workplace productivity. For some reason, leadership refuses to get rid of underperforming staff members in spite of continuous reports from other staff of those staff members that continuously call in sick (without a sick note), who do not complete their work on time and who generally do not work but get paid for it. I would only recommend working at Altum if you are lazy and would like a low paying cushy job to get through the rest of your life. Otherwise, stay 1 year and get out!
