The culture at the work place is fairly toxic. They are absolutely incompetent, terrible at communicating and promoting cohesion amongst the different departments, play favorites among the staff ignoring problematic people who they like while simultaneously being incredibly harsh towards those they dislike and not rewarding hard work or diligence, and do their best to be as uninvolved as they possibly can until a problem has escalated out of control or has already been resolved so that they can take credit for it. Management is by far the worst part of working at this company. For example, a strep test to diagnose a sore throat would go. The work can be hard but rewarding if you are a person who feels pride about providing patient care. Every clinical pathology lab has a specific focus, depending on the type of test and its purpose. Includes informative description and breakdown of departments as.
