Thank you so much for your review. It looks like your 3 star experience is well below our target goal for our employee experience, so let me extend our apologies for that. Three weeks of PTO is what we offer to new hires plus holidays and that covers vacation and sick time. We do offer maternity leave, although it's not a paid leave. Some employers may offer more or less PTO or even a paid maternity leave, but we do feel that we are overall pretty competitive on our overall compensation, benefits and time-off package. I encourage any employees to speak to their supervisor about pay rate concerns so we can discuss options. Most jobs at Austin Retina do offer the opportunity for career progression and all jobs include an annual performance review with (typically) a pay increase. Please consult your supervisor or HR and we will do our level best to find solutions to all of your concerns.

Pros

Amazing co-workers and physicians. Beautiful offices, PTO accrual is at a good rate. good growth and skills learned in all departments. Regional aspect makes it better for work-life balance. Remote positions available(after experience).

Cons

Extremely short staffed to where people are burnt out. Not much acknowledgement to burn out. Being told they are making changes to make it better for employees, but making it more difficult. Being told we are heard, which may be true, but are not understood. Plans to rely on AI for working models to cut cost. Increasing physician count and patient count while reducing staff or keeping it the same, spreading current staff thinner. due to burn out, many people are quitting. high turnover rate.
