As a Locums, you are a guest in the particular facility you are working. In some settings, you will be provided much support, in others  you may have very little, but either way, you will be able to spend more time on patient care as you will not have to be concerned with the politics of the job/employer/company, and most places are happy to have the help. 
There is the possibility of finding yourself in a semi hostile environment, as you may be envied because the regular staff know your income is greater than theirs, while  they forget you are away from home, family, friends, etc. However,  you will  often find yourself  making lifelong friends, at some of the locations /assignments.

The beautiful new campus is great, state of the art workout facility,  great secure campus (i.e. more big brother watching over you). However,  all of those new things come at a price...job advancement opportunities are low for those who have been there for a while or in the workforce for a while...the opportunities are not there. They recruit college graduates for lower pay  but yet tell those who have extensive experience rarely make the cut....a great contradiction. Voted as one of the best millennial companies to work for is awesome however that comes comes at the sacrifice of experience and low customer satisfaction scores. This company had great potential,  I am still.at the company but have quickly discovered that they are no different than all of the other companies out there in the industry.

Avid runner completed several Marathons and Half Marathons in Hawaii, Boston, New York, London and Geneva, Berlin
Constant learner, I know what I know and know what I don't know. Keep strict C.M.E credits attending to meetings and reviewing Audio digest, On Line CME. Preparing to take Boards in Aerospace Medicine in November. Working at E.R is a changeling endeavor which pushes me to prepare myself in Urgent, Life threatening situations that is one of the hardest parts of the job, being prepared. Keeping current Basic Life support, Advance Life Support, Pediatric Life support Advance Trauma Life support 
I believe that the most important part of the job is to travel to remote assignments to learn and help people in needs, as a pay back to the opportunities received in my career and life

My last assignment with locums tenens was with in a hospital in the occupational medicine dept. It was very good and I was happy with the assignment but I think my compensation was a little bit on the low side. It was like doing easy urgent care with referral to Orthopedics if needed. Ophthalmology if needed or any other discipline that would be needed. I enjoyed my assignment and would do it again but the compensation would have to be a little bit better. The  hardest part would be the computer system. The most enjoyable part was a set schedule and going home a certain time

Everything was misrepresented about the job, from hours and pay, patient load, orientation to the job and work environment. 

Locum Tenens did not understand the legal parameters a Physician Assistant practices under in the state where I was working. They chose to follow the advice of the Physician instead of me and the State on what the legal requirements for practice were, which placed my license and reputation in jeopardy. 

 When the physician ultimately refused to comply with State regulations and the job was terminated after one week,  they abandoned me 5000 miles from home.

I will piggyback on the previous review. Great benefits, I would say gorgeous campus and very nice gym on campus. Management was unprofessional, discouraging and biased. The manager of the team I was on was very involved with her (Click) / other her employees. If you are not accepted into their circle then the manager made it difficult for you to succeed in the job. The atmosphere was based off of your personality/ popularity and not by work ethics.  I have been in the healthcare business for 5 plus years and I was appalled by the manager's attitude.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Very good support from Locum tenems staff. If there was anything I needed, they would negotiate with the clinic staff.  I was hired and credentialed quickly. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
When  I had to work overtime-but that was because of the clinic schedule.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Friendly,supportive, and caring staff at LT.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Busy, with med management apps q 15 minutes. Again, this was issue at the clinic,not with Locum Tenens.

What is the best part of working at the company?
It's my first time working for a locums company. Several months in, I'm very happy with my assignment and my locums representative and company. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
I haven't had a lot of stress working for this company. First day anxiety was probably the most stress I had. After a day of orientation, it has been a great experience. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
It's a very multicultural work environment. Everyone is very nice, and it's been a pleasure to work at my first assignment.

Working locums as an MD is fun, with lots of variety and an opportunity to develop new skills.   You can check out job situations before committing yourself, and don't have to deal with billing or administration.   I enjoy the extra time to see patients.

Part of the enjoyment, but also challenging, is learning new systems when going to different work sites.  For example, learning different EHR's.   I like computers, but am an average user.   Working locums has sharpened my skills.

I haven't had any issues with the company. I think everyone's experience is dependent on how good their agent is. Salary is comparable to market rate of other travel agencies. I feel like travel accommodations have been fine. Payment is weekly and on time. You are able to log hours online and will receive approval or feedback to change if needed. I would recommended from  my experiences.
