Pros

Arguably the most well-known dialysis companies in the world. Massively established in the sector, job security is a certainty.

Cons

Long hours, mandatory overtime. If patients are delayed or have access issues, they still need their treatment and there's no relieving shift like a traditional hospital RN position. You wait, bill for the delay, and do your treatment. If you're scheduled for a 7a - 5p, and have a patient in the AM who has a four hour treatment, and another in the afternoon with a four hour treatment, you're already looking at 12 hours and that's not accounting for transport delays, imaging, IR, or any other procedures delaying your start time.

Pros

Management supports a work-life balance, hours are flexible, okay benefits. Good training opportunities and there is effort by management to support a good work culture. 6 weeks at 80% of pay Paternity/Maternity & Adoption leave. 401K with 6% matching. For 2 adults, we pay for Davita's Anthem BCBS healthcare plan and it is $350/month (4,700 deductible).

Cons

Payscale isn't aggressive - 1% raise each year. You also may be asked to cover other clinics temporarily without fair compensation for the extra workload.
