How employees describe working at NextGen Healthcare
Care about employees and company
Was a great place before Rusty Franz was replaced by David Sides. Sides has turned the place into a terrible place to work. Money he can make is his only concern.
I enjoyed my team and the work we did. Early on we felt like we mattered and the work we did contributed to it. I'm not sure why Rusty is still listed as the CEO but when he left and the current CEO David Sides took over, things pretty much have been on the decline. The company has fully sold out.
I overall enjoyed my time working at NextGen and had a great team and department that made my me feel like myself and the work we did mattered. Not sure why Rusty is still shown as CEO here but when David Sides, the current CEO came on, things started to decline and became more about the bottom line
The Executive Leadership Team is only worried about filling their wallets. The recent acquisition by Thoma Bravo followed by a 20% reduction of employees, exemplifies this. Those same job that were USA jobs now have open reqs for the same job in India.
