I stayed for as long as I could and gave them a chance to improve the environment and work place. Unfortunately the nepotism, older men's perverse and crass vocal opinions of their female coworkers/employees, toxic work environment, and lack of care finally got to me. It was very disappointing.

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

Making the patients smile or greeting others in other departments.

What did you like most about the interview process?

They talked of benefits and further success that initially excited me.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

They need to actually care about their employees and their work environment and well-being. Leadership helps encourage a toxic work environment, and encourages back-stabbing, which I have never experienced before. They also participate and encourage gossip.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

They expect you to give it all and work hard, but give nothing in return to give incentive. They expect you to pick up others slack when they do not complete their work, and do not recognize you when you do complete it.

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

Unfortunately, even though every one you work with is over 18 and considered adults, there is a high school mentality in the work environment. Back-stabbing, rumors, and toxicity runs rampant through the department, causing coworkers to not interact efficiently. They refuse to work together.

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

There needs to be change implemented instead of simply talked about. There are systems and procedures they have that is outdated, and no matter how much talk of improvement there is, they remain stagnant. Management needs to be let go if they show nepotism, which goes on blatantly here.
