Pros

Easy to figure out how to do everything if you are motivated to learn. If you're fast, you'll end up with some down time

Cons

The company regularly adds more responsibilities to your job description while also taking away benefits. New hires get paid more than employees that have been here for decades. The expectation for how many people get staffed at a time is also too little. Scheduler is not given enough hours to schedule two shift leads at a time meaning the shift lead on duty doesn't get their mandatory 30 minute break.

Pros

Supportive team, flexible scheduling, and a good environment for learning new skills. Great experience for students or anyone looking to build workplace experience.

Cons

Pay could be better, and some tasks can be repetitive at times. Advancement opportunities may be limited in an intern or part-time role.

Pros

I love my team so much and we have some regular patients that are amazing.

Cons

Well I'm supposed to be full time but the last few weeks in feeling barely 30 hours a week. We have staff and no hours, customers are hateful. We're exhausted.
