What do you like about working at DaVita?

"I did not like working at DaVita. The individuals in the human resources department are sub-par at best, and they are liars. They do very little to protect their employees, which they refer to as teammates. They do not award you raises and/or evaluations on time. I had to wait over a year to have them provide me with my evaluation. And I never received my retro-active pay. I had to keep asking them to do my review and kept reminding them that it was severely past-due. Although I did not get my raise, I was asked to take on more responsibilities that I was not compensated for."

"DaVita used to be a great company to work for, but no more."

What don't you like about working at DaVita?

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Remember that without the teammates, the company would not be what it is today. Give credit where it is due. Fix people services, especially in team renaissance."
