Pros

They pay well and have good benefits.

Cons

This place is the worst place I have ever worked and it is shame because it has a good mission. The problem is there is a culture of bullying and unprofessionalism. I think the problem is a few people who started when this was a small family managed clinic grew into leadership positions they can't handle as the one clinic grew to one of the largest networks in SoCal. I watched senior leadership over and over plot against newcomers (with much more experience and expertise) and spend most of their time stirring up drama. Staff is very divided by cliques and behavior found within the walls of the corporate seemed more indicative to middle school playgrounds. This translated into a culture of bullying and inappropriate behavior (extremely racist and sexist) among all levels and departments. They really need to a controlled burn because this place is two steps away from a class action lawsuit. I know of many people who were pushed out by questionable tactics. The turnover is as high as the level of unhappiness of the employees.

Pros

Great health and dental insurance, and lots of opportunities to train. Good coworkers to lean on.

Cons

There are rarely any opportunities for part time positions, so most people end up stuck and aren't able to attend school full time unless they quit. A lot of favoritism and nepotism. If you bring up genuine concerns to management, they'll just spit out corporate policies instead of working on actual solutions to help employees and patients alike. Several employees have left due to burnout but management shames them for not being able to handle the huge workload.
