Horrible

Recommend
Business Outlook

Pros

When they took over our Quest Diagnostics we were able to keep our year employed with them instead of having to start at ground one. ____________________________________________________________________________ They do have a central hub where they have lots of informational videos and articles about the company.

Cons

The pay is not comparable to other corporate companies in the area. ____________________________________________________________________________ They micromanage down to the last second. ____________________________________________________________________________ I hope you don't like hour lunches. It's a mandatory two breaks a day and one 30 min lunch. ____________________________________________________________________________ The benefits are horrible considering we use UHC as our insurance. High deductibles and co-insurance.

Pros

There are never no layoff and they will do everything in their power to keep you working for them.

Cons

The company is basically phone work only. In this company even when you move up it is still phone work.
