Augmedix Reviews

Cons = everything that happens after you're hired on. As you can see from prior reviews (and the totally laughable responses by the CEO Ian) Augmedix is simply terrible. I think it started out as a great idea between two naive guys who simply ran it into the ground. The company motto is to "rehumanize medicine" which sounds great, but this is done by way of "dehumanizing employees." Unless you're one of the "elite", meaning Ian's friends or the team of 25-30 year old "managers" that have zero experience in business, life, or anything else, you're treated like garbage. Another reviewer wrote something about having a lot of MBAs at the company -- if more than a few people in Augmedix management have MBAs I'd be shocked, because the management team isn't qualified to manage a corner store. I have never worked in a place where even the top "minds" of the company are so heavily into the clique culture. Even people employees should be able to count on play into this cult like culture of hate, and they will go out of their way to make those they do not like feel isolated, uncomfortable and miserable. Please do read the other reviews, and read the CEO responses if you want a good laugh. Rest assured, you can trust the employees on this one -- not the CEO that is trying to hold together some semblance of a decent company. It will all be gone soon.

The work is mostly night shift which is sometimes very challenging and stressful under pressure regardless of family time and social life or even long term health condition. It is performance oriented job which implies one should perform constantly in real time regardless of any issues like fatigue or illness. (Exceptions are very few) Since the company is US based startup, it follows American holiday which is a constraint of claiming any government/public holiday like Bangla New Year, Independence Day etc. Of note, there are around seven (7) holidays in the calendar year. Also, you may have to work on Eid day if you have no substitution. Last but not least, the employees especially the medical scribes are not equally treated in terms of respect and remuneration. Also, the employer may terminate anyone without any prior notice regardless of any contract.
