Pros

Some kind of income... bits of advancement, small 50 cent raises for cross training. Medical related experience.

Cons

High turn over industry, high stress, unhygienic donors, rude donors, employee favoritism, management apathy, not much room for growth. They tell you it is a "stepping stone" job but it is not. They don't care if you have education. Also don't care when you are suffering at the hands of rude, impatient donors or warm body coworkers. Favoritism and cronyism is what gets you the promotion, not hard work. On top of this, you have to endure audits where well paid executives from corporate come in to tear you apart. Oh and lets not forget the exposure to blood borne pathogens and sharp instruments.

Pros

Competitive pay, easy work, great benefits.

Cons

Unexpected additional tasks specifically for MP’s that were someone’s only job in the past (for 0 additional compensation), toxic leadership (specifically the COM’s as they do not possess the skills to manage people in the way a legitimate manager would-hense why they were only ever supervisors previously) that ended up in the positions they have due to recent restructuring, micromanaging everyone to oblivion, complete and utter disrespect from those unfortunate people in make shift supervisory roles.
