What is the best part of working at the company?
The most respectful and stress-less job I've had in a public health setting in my life.  The company actually looks out for their doctors. The scheduling freedom and amount of autonomy is wonderful.  Being given credit for good work and asking for input is unprecedented in my experience.  My favorite company to work for.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Traveling some distance to get to schools is taxing, but you can still define the parameters for travel. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Every team is different according to region, and my team is excellent. Hard working, cooperative and fun.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Arrive at the school at the beginning of the day,  move in and set up equipment.  See all the students who were signed up for services.  There are mostly diagnostic and preventive services, and some simple restorative. Then break down and pack up once all students are seen or school dismissal, whichever comes first.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The people I worked with were wonderful. They are helpful and friendly. But there is a high turnover rate. There are very few people who have worked there longer than a few years. Training seems straight forward but there is a lot about the job that's left out and turns out to be confusing once you start the job. I would not recommend working here. It's a shame because their mission is noble.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Once you manage to get through the large workload at the start of the school year, you begin to wish for it back because during the lull, you wonder why you come to work at all.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The people on my team and those who sat around me were very nice and helpful. Management rarely checked in. It felt like a sink or swim scenario.

This is a good company with a really good mission. Their is very little communication with corporate so if you take it make sure and go up chain of command to make things happen if you are unhappy. They pay good specially if you work full time don't be afraid to ask for more. You will travel on average 2 hours a day but will usually be home before 5:00. As the dentist you need to have very good patient management skills as you will be working on 4-18 yrs kids with no sedation or nitrous. You are paid a day rate and dont have work in the summer so keep that in mind. Overall this is a very rewarding job and can make a huge impact on the kids of your community and surrounding areas. 

Worked as systems administrator for a year. Never missed a single day of work, never was allowed a vacation. I was asked to spy on my co-workers to see if they were working on "things that would make him look bad to the higher ups".
I informed my co-workers who confronted my boss. I was let go shortly after. The other review of this company is extremely accurate. If you are not "cool" with management, you will be let go. A major issue is that the company uses refurbished equipment that fails, then blames the dental drivers.

I liked it, co-workers are very nice, breaks and lunch fair(it’s a choice) flexibility in the scheduled. As stated I loved to work there, every end of the month they treat you with little snacks(cupcakes, cookies etc) to celebrate anniversaries and birthdays of the months, also some time for breakfast donuts and coffee. Which they have to kitchen with coffee they provide and the sugar and little bags of creamer(boxes) also every holiday is a celebration they do potlucks. Not the perfect pay but super great environment and people to work with 

I believe when I was there they must have been going through a transition, because it seemed like no one was secured with their positions. 
I was apart of a lot their, however due to my incapability within sitting for 8 hours, and some typing skills they had to release me. 

I completely understand due to the fact I am not a sit down all the time type of person.My recent manager was nice, she had her quarks like all managers, I do believe she is capable on working on them. 

But I don't believe it was the BEST experience, but definitely not the worst

If you like to focus on your work this is the place to be.  Processing dental claims, and learning guideline for insurance carriers, The hardest part of the job is each carrier has its own specific rules keeping them all straight gets tricky at times.  The downfall to this job is the specific software that is currently being used is not user friendly as you cannot resize windows to your viewing style or adjust type size.  The program displays in small print. 
The best part of the job is the team, friendly and very helpful.  I love working for this company.

The job itself was easy to perform. You work 8 hours with 2 15 minute breaks. If you take a lunch off the premises it requires you to punch  out and you won't be paid for it. Otherwise, eat while your work and you're good. There are some immature and silly girls that works there.They talked so much during the 8 hour shift. I literally had to tune them out everyday. Other than that, the Management is easy going as long as you are doing what you're paid to do.

At this job although were not on front lines and we're care coordinating in office it still feel like your contributions make a real difference and positively affect children in need of dental care. You gain a sense of appreciation for the company's mission and values and how they align with your own. All while having a healthy balance between work and personal life, with reasonable hours and flexibility when needed.

I came in with no experience in Call Center, I have gained a lot of knowledge in customer service, computer etiquette, ect. The Call Center team is not just a team, we are a family. I love that we can all joke around and have a good time when appropriate. 10/10 i would recommend working here if you're looking to gain experience!
