Pros

Benefits such as insurance and 401k. You don't need to be smart or an entrepreneur to work here. All you have to do is be okay with getting used, abused and replaced.

Cons

This place had me working under the title of MA, yet I was doing all the billing. They refused to give me the proper title to not increase pay. While I taught the administrative staff and office staff, all I knew about billing and insurances they had me around . Once the staff learned, they terminated me. After an agreement between me and adm. staff to accommodate my school schedule, they relocated me then termed me. The managers are completely unprofessional and they use the staff to look good. From all the managers i worked with in HCAPS, the smartest one couldn't write an email without grammar error. Incredible, how corporate allows these people to stay in charge. I think that the corporate office should really look into the management level staff because it's time to clean up.

Pros

Really flexible with time off requests and personal matters

Cons

It is really hard to get promoted from within the company. Your best bet is to apply for the position you want from the get go
