Hayes-Locums,-LLC

Hayes Locums claims to help you build a career you can thrive in. 

Hayes locums also claims that their leadership team will support you, celebrate your victories, and coach you on new opportunities. Stating that they encourage managers to invest time in developing and empowering, their most important asset, their people. 

After working at Hayes for several years, I can say these statements seem very far from the truth. 

In my opinion, Hayes Locums is the epitome of a toxic work environment. 
I have seen many employees, especially in the MSS department suffer from burnout. The department is extremely understaffed, and without a formal training program. The employees are assigned so many files from high turnover that mistakes are constantly made. Work is piled on until its unmanageable and rather than hire more people, the expectation is to either take it home or put in long hours. If an employee cannot do either, they are viewed as having performance issues. 

Celebrating success was also not a thing for MSS. I feel like the only times the department was truly recognized was when they were forced to clean up a mess or urgently get a physician through the hospital’s door. Celebrating success as a company has also really come to a halt, thanks to all the extreme budget cuts being made. 

Suggestions for company improvement were provided to the executive team several times over by many people, including myself. Unfortunately, all suggestions fell on deaf ears as the CEO seems to only follow the direction of his mother, the VP of Risk Management. 

I personally felt that their dynamic alone created a hostile work environment as both mother and son could be heard speaking badly about physicians, hospital staff members, and employees openly on the floor. I feel that employees were expected to turn a blind eye to the behavior because the director HR was unable to control the situations that were brought about. Sometimes I’d even see and hear her mimic employees’ reactions as they were fired. It was truly disgusting. 

It is extremely unfortunate that I saw Hayes Locums go from a great place to work at to a toxic one. My advice would be for the executive team to really take the time to listen to their employees in person, not through a pressured survey. Many are afraid to lose their jobs and struggle with anxiety upon walking through those doors daily.  Its a horrible position to be in,

I have avoided leaving this review for quite some time, as I had hoped to hear that things have improved. I came in to my position after the department experienced significant turnover, negative feedback, and a demotion of one of their managers. Based on the feedback I received, it seemed as though the higher ups were totally adrift as to how to appropriately manage their MSS departments after struggling with very apparent issues with Risk Management. 
While taking this feedback into consideration, I still decided to move forward with the position in hopes I could create a positive change for my MSS team. While I felt I was able to help my staff remain positive during my tenure, I soon learned of the family and close friend dynamic that occurs at Hayes. If you’re not already in the “group,” forget about making any compelling changes - regardless of your role in the company or having the company’s best interest at heart.
It seems as though those that I reported to on the executive team were unable to have any crucial conversations. Conversations felt insincere and dishonest, and the executives would in turn meet with the staff on my team that were a part of their circle of “people they can trust.” 
Their biggest con is that the family is so nervous about who to trust that they don’t stop to realize that their company/ staff is finding it hard to trust them. They’ll never retain their talent this way, and I’m not sure they’re able to change that.
I wish I could find more positive words to say, but I feel the need to be completely honest.

As a recent college graduate, one of the many difficulties to job hunting is finding a suitable entry-level position that doesn't have a mandatory requirement of 2 years of prior experience in the field. Coming to Hayes Locums was a fantastic decision to gain that experience and more. 

As mentioned above, the surrounding culture and environment allows you to grow in your unique individual way. The initial training prepares you for all situations that a consultant role can throw towards you. Everyone at the company works hard, and strives hard, while giving you the awareness that - you cannot fall behind in this industry. Each employee in the company has a daily routine that is different from the next, allowing you to learn and experience the various techniques that can make one successful in this position, and others outside of it. 

This is a fantastic company to dig your feet in and work hard for. The compensation and benefits are more that fair, in addition to the relations built between all levels inside and outside of the office. The learning that I have gained thus far is preparing me for higher future roles with relation to the medical industry.

Hayes is family owned and you'll know it on your first day. You can tell this is John's (our CEO) baby. Just like any of us, he cares about his baby. The sales role takes some initiative, creativity and forward thinking. You can't come in expecting to make millions in a month. You have to think long term and know the work you put in this year will pay off next year. John and his team have put many things into place here at Hayes to make that year not so tough. The snacks, the events, the luncheons, town hall meetings every quarter, teambuilding activities, ping pong table and much more. These are all perks to keep you motivated. Management is very hands-on as well as the 2 weeks of training! Training includes role plays, call blast session, knowledge jeopardy and we even got the opportunity to hear from some of the top billers and CEO. They really prepare you in those 2 weeks to be desk ready and from my experience my manager was able to answer any follow up questions I had as well. Leadership is very transparent and hands on without micromanaging.

Working for this company was one of the worst professional experiences I've had. The work culture is incredibly toxic, with management fostering an environment that values short-term profits over employee well-being and professional growth. Communication is poor and often dismissive, making it nearly impossible to get clear direction or constructive feedback. Expectations are constantly shifting, but there’s no support in place to help you meet those goals. Instead of encouraging teamwork, there's a cutthroat atmosphere where employees are pitted against each other to compete for favor.

Work-life balance is nonexistent, with long hours and unrealistic expectations considered the norm. Those who try to address issues or suggest improvements are often ignored or reprimanded, creating an atmosphere where speaking up feels risky. The company has high turnover for a reason; it's draining and demoralizing. If you're looking for a supportive, professional environment, keep looking. This place will only leave you feeling undervalued and burnt out.

It is not too often you find a position that allows you to make over 100K in just over a year and 200K plus in the following years with just a bachelors degree. 

Nothing is given to you once you are at your desk (leads, phone numbers, etc), only quality training and support from your colleagues and manager. 

The training staff is well equipped and very friendly. Hayes has done an amazing job ramping up the training program and implementing a continuing education program for new hires. 

If you are able to weather the storms and put in a lot of time towards your career, you will make a lot of money and fairly quickly. 

Another great thing about this company is their efforts and willingness to give back to charitable organizations and the community. Hayes and the leadership team recently gave me the opportunity volunteer at a summer camp for kids who have lost a parent or caretaker. Not only did they connect me with an amazing organization, but they also paid for my flights and didn't charge me and PTO for being away from the office for a week!

Hayes Locums is the company I've been looking for. It has the feel of a start-up but is led by upper management who have dominated this industry for years and are hungry to take this company to the next level. The culture here is something special too. The work hard, play hard mentality is alive and well here as everyone is competitive, hungry and eager to learn. Also, everyone is super friendly and gets along with each other, making a fun work culture.

As someone with management experience, but never with staffing or locums, you can rest assured because the training at Hayes Locums is extremely in-depth. I experienced 2 weeks of classroom training, further management training, followed up with sporadic Manager's Learning Series enabling me to feel confident leading a team of sales consultants.

I recommend this job to anyone looking for a career change as a sales consultant or manager in a high growth, fast-paced environment.

Unless you are in a relationship with a higher up, or have been there since the beginning, good luck to you. They don’t care about your work life balance and make you work 9am-9pm. They will harass you unnecessarily. And if you’re not “one of them” believe me, you’ll know it. Their “PIP” plan is bogus and it’s ABSOLUTELY not intended to see any performance improvement but to fire you. CEO and some managers talk poorly about staff. Their metrics on performance make no sense when deals fall apart constantly and completely out of your control. If your colleagues can’t properly seal the deal with the client, you will lose your doctor. They barely train  on credentialing and expect you to be an expert. Nothing is ever steady here. If you get hired into Hospitalist, APP, or any team that the lifers work on, you’re so screwed. You don’t get to pick what team they hire you for. Benefits are good, but that’s it. Office is nice and there’s a lot of fantastic people there. But management and execs are very very shady

Hayes Locums is a great company to work for coming out of college. The training and development team does a tremendous job equipping new consultants with the necessary skillset to overcome obstacles associated with running a fully functional desk/book of business. Coming out of college, Hayes Locums provides their consultants with a decent entry level salary and the opportunity to make six figures realistically in two-three years. Much of your success will stem from your ability to maintain energy and continuously willing to learn and develop your verbal communication skills. As someone who has had success early on, I would say that the most important element of working at Hayes Locums is finding a mentor. There are plenty of people willing to invest their time and energy into helping you development methods to recruit physicians, especially finding unique ways to connect with doctors who are specifically interested in working in our trade.

Before Hayes I came from an industry and location that had a lack of leadership, massively disproportionate work/life balance, training that didn't correlate to my individual results, and no support from upper management on engagement or advanced technology. Hayes is a company where I've worked for more than two years and not only do I have ALL of those things with my role, but I also feel like a valued employee that is growing and being challenged every day. 

If you're coming in hungry, competitive, willing to learn, and wanting to adapt and find your own path here you WILL be successful. There are passionate people not only leading this company, but training our employees and permeating our sales floor that are willing to help you.  

Amazing company, massive earning potential, healthy growth, and a chance to better yourself each & every day.
