worst work experience i've ever had - Anonymous employee Phoenix Care Systems Employee Review

I enjoyed the work and mission of PCS. I also enjoyed the people I worked with in my department. The company went through some difficult times and hired an outside management team to turn it around. The management team started making some progress but ownership decided to sell to a private equity company.

The only downside was working with the investment banking company. They kept trying to maintain the asking price but as we did our due diligence and with all the issues the previous leadership left us this became futile. This led to increased pressure from the investment bankers along with longer hours. Would have liked to stay however there was lack of communication of our future with the company which led me to look for employment elsewhere.

There were a few great, hard-working people that worked there.

The day I signed papers to become an employee, they forgot that I was scheduled. Then I overheard someone complaining that they scheduled me for that day. It did not make me feel welcomed! The first two weeks of training barely applied to my position. It would have been better to have me job-shadowing so I could be more prepared for when I worked on my own. Some of the management is rude. They even made comments like "ship them in and ship them out" when workers were quitting and we were low on staff. That doesn't really make it feel like we are valued as workers there. Our work load was very high and a lot of people ended up working at home on days off. This made it harder to do the best we could for our clients. Almost every day I heard people talking poorly of other co-workers; gossip was spread easily! Some of the staff in the HR department were extremely rude whenever I had to work with them on insurance, etc. Pay was low and benefits weren't great either.
