Amazing Staff - Vice President of Clinical Operations Global Transitional Care Employee Review

I worked for GTC as a nurse, and was laid off. Some of the pros were good working environment, great people, and the concept was right on point. And despite the negativity being written about the CEO by what is so obviously a couple of disgruntled employees, I felt inspired and motivated by what she created and feel fortunate for being part of this company. I loved working with the patients, seeing just how much this was needed by patient and their families. The CEO was definitely on to something with GTC. GTC was a start up people, there will be ups and downs. So she made some mistakes, anyone that has tried to do something like this will tell you that, whether they succeed or fail. Regardless, I don't see anyone else with the guts to actually even think about doing something like this. Its so easy to finger point when everything is said and done. And by the way, this was a team effort. The CEO had a team in place, so if there is going to be finger pointing, you gotta be fair about it. From my standpoint, I also felt that the CEO was very upfront about things with the employees.

it was definitely risky. Especially towards the end, there was a lot of stress. Being on the clinical side, there was not a whole lot of support from the CMO. Wish he was involved more. Processes were choppy and changed often, but again its a start up.

Initially the company has a cool start up vibe, some parts of the company, particularly the caregiver side are great. Friendly people trying really hard to help other people. The executive team is friendly and helpful too, it’s a family operation.

If you are a NP or Nurse, you would do much better to stay away: The medical group and transitional medicine side are a bait and switch. While initially friendly, it devolves into a toxic mess. I was promised a work place that was all about work life balance. I was told there was no micromanaging and when I came in I was hit with weekly metrics meetings and tracking spreadsheets to ensure every minute was peak efficiency. Managers that are so stressed out that they don’t even listen to you during meetings or zone out completely to the point where you say their name with increasing volume staring at them and they don’t even acknowledge you as if in a stupor (I wish that was hyperbole). An environment where the clinical leadership consistently talk bad about the providers and nurses in the field. Where “you can’t work overtime if we don’t approve it” but you still had to finish your work, and many people were encouraged or maybe even more likely casually ignored when they took the work home, and did hours of overtime much of which likely wasn’t approved. Working under all of this feels like an abusive relationship where I was being gaslit into thinking I was doing nothing despite constantly having more and more piled on. It got so bad I spent two weeks crying in the bathroom on my breaks, and at one point felt like there was no other choice but to jump off the second story (also not a hyperbole). I have never felt that in my life or during my time in the military. NPs felt like they had to do zoom calls while driving to new patients, got pulled over and received tickets because they just didn’t feel they had the time to drive, chart, put in orders and see patients. MAs got tickets at hospitals they were ordered to go to and just ate the cost. That’s no a company that cares about its employees.
