Vitas Innovative Hospice Care Employee Reviews for Anonymous Employee

"Vitas is a great company to work for that takes pride in providing hospice care for those patients at end of life."

"It’s a great company to get your feet wet as a Sales Representative, but I also feel like it’s the Army version of a medical sales Representative. The pay is average, the commission structure is not great, and you’re definitely working over 40 hours a week when it comes to administrative work, sales calls, and outside business hours work events. Plus most expenses are paid up front, no company card. If you’re single, and never been a medical sales Representative then this is a great company to start with where you can really prepare yourself as a great representative!"

"Working at Vitas may give you a sense of purpose and meaning while earning a paycheck. There are great people to work with. The corporate focus is on numbers and it can be a challenge to balance this with the human side of the business. Overall, I enjoyed my experience and learned a great deal about the business behind healthcare."

"I worked for Vitas hospice for two years and it was great. The nurses, the management and then about six months ago about a year ago they got a new general manager for the financial side in about six months ago they got a new general manager for the clinical side and things have declined -from their micro management -to corporate totally corporate ways and feel. I have seen so many great great team nurses and great managers step out of the way in the last year due to management new management. In the past with my immediate supervisor team later I would’ve had excellent comments with all the changes there’s nothing to say but to go get a new job"

"Overall, nothing bad to say. Company is in the midst of some growing pains, however in the senior and ground level management levels."

"Worked for Vitas over 8 yrs. Started as an OK place to work. The job itself is very satisfying. Immediate supervisors are good to work with. The starting salaries way below industry. NO shift differentials. Salaries have been frozen a couple of times and currently frozen until further notice (NO INFLATION ADJUSTMENT). The benefits package sucks! Insurance for family is just unplayable. Retirement plan has barely a tiny match. It has a standard PTO. CEO compensation for 2012 = $2,162,222.00."
