Pros

diagnostic imaging and how it advances patient care. Solving problems and meeting complex needs of providers and patients. Bringing valuable imaging advancements to hospital systems.

Cons

Tone deaf leadership, out of touch with reality. This place is an example of a company not knowing or understanding the business they bought. If you as a salesperson, want to spend your time explaining workflow, business strategy, c suite dynamics and pain points of each account to a pile of overpaid sales execs while you beg for your fairly earned bonus because they can't figure out or have changed the math or the formula, you'll love it here! Read that twice because there are many AEs who will tell you the same thing. I've never witnessed a company destroy itself so well and with such full throated enthusiasm. Talented hardworking field based sales people being asked to do busy work spreadsheets, sit on irrelevant conference calls and log calls on a GPS tracker. This place will take someone with two -three plus decades of successful experience and fully waste that talent. PET and MRI units will break down and you'll miss many service days, but you'll have the same sales goal even though you had less opportunity to get scans completed. It's like saying there is no service available 10% of the time but hey, please sell more of that service and please deliver 20% more volume YOY. In other words..too bad sucker no bonus for you Working here is like watching a dumpster fire that you try to extinguish but it keeps roaring back to life. Leadership fails to understand the difference between different accounts, JV wholesale, retail, they just apply the same approach no matter given to the different stakeholders involved. We are busy and engaged and working on short, mid, long term goals that existed before the new leadership arrived. Sales ppl are pulled from all their projects to talk about nothing with leaders who have nothing to offer as a solution. You'll be questioned about your volume even when it is low because service was cancelled with no make up days provided.

Pros

There are some talented and hardworking people across the organization who genuinely try to do their best despite constant challenges and resistance to their efforts to improve workflows. A few team members are supportive and collaborative, but they are often stretched too thin to make a lasting difference.

Cons

Akumin's marketing department has a toxic work environment driven by poor leadership, lack of accountability, and constant instability. Communication is inconsistent, expectations shift without warning, and employees are often left feeling unsupported, undervalued, and in emotionally challenging situations. Leadership decisions seem reactive instead of strategic, which creates unnecessary stress and confusion across the team. Morale suffers when strong employees are overworked while deeper organizational issues go unaddressed. The culture makes it difficult to feel secure, respected, or optimistic about long-term growth.
