Tennessee Cancer Specialists

My work experience at TCS has been amazing. Everyone has been both welcoming and professional, including the physicians, which has not the case in other clinic settings. Lunch is provided everyday and sometimes breakfast and afternoon snacks/smoothies as well (huge money saver.) As with all clinics and most phlebotomy jobs, its first shift but semi-hard to have a second/PRN opportunity without an established/consistent shift-end time. The health benefits are great and PTO accrual is similar to most healthcare careers. TCS also does regularly appreciate its employees with verbal recognition and tangible gifts. 

Great patient care and all the RNs, Dr.s, and NPs I worked with were fabulous. They have a high turnover rate in a couple of departments. The company preaches about taking care of their employees and “seeks your input” (should’ve been a red flag) which couldn’t farther from the truth, unless your a pet. When hired you are encouraged “to share with your supervisor” peers and team members problems or concerns, but if you want to keep your job, I wouldn’t recommend doing so. Favored employees are protected even if they are in the wrong, be warned. You have to give the ‘new’ time to wear off before the true colors start to show. Otherwise, a great place to work.

Manager at the GV office has created a horrible work experience.  Her lies and manipulative character creates so much tension for everyone.  She shows favoritism and is only pleasant to those who compliment her and pretend to like her and take her abuse.  She does not know how to manage and her rudeness is over the top .   She is unapproachable and condescending.   She talks about her employees business to other employees and gossips.  If they would get the current Manager out of here we could have a great functional facility.  

Tennessee cancer specialists has the opportunity to really be a good company. However when management and your Human Resources department is absolutely awful take Nothing serious and let people get by with stuff they would lose there jobs over at different companies. A lot of the supervisors are really good people but when management pretty much has there hands tied behind there back the supervisors can’t do anything when it comes to  managing. I would highly recommend not applying for this position if you’re looking for a career. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
Nothing !!! Horrible horrible place to work !! 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The doctors act like entitled divas. The lead phlebotomist is a two faced rat and the upper management is no help what so ever. Never consider contacting HR for anything , you will get terminated 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Clicky and bougie. Regular people won’t fit in. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Painful stressful not at all like they describe it to be

Coming into this job I expected a team who works together to care for their patients in the hardest time of their lives! Instead it was a nightmare and patient care was not a priority. Co-workers did not care to work as a team. They can harass people, very malicious and got away with it. I would not recommend this company to work for. The pay was good and you do get lunch everyday. However, that is not worth the troubles that come with this job. Specifically at the park west location. 

I loved my coworkers! Working with the fellow techs, pharmacy and (most) of the nurses was awesome.

 Management and supervisors were absolutely terrible. They’re incredibly rude, gossip and lie. You’d be told one thing, and then in trouble for it the next day. There’s little to no communication. Lots of “rules for thee, not for me”. Retaliation if you spoke up on anything. Just a toxic and draining place to be in everyday. 

The stress you’d have coming home everyday was unbearable. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
The Patient's were always nice and you become close.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Not having any help and being told that we are incompetent. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
toxic. It felt as if you were walking on egg shells daily with the Providers and nurses.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Usually very busy, not even being able to have lunch.

Communication from direct management is lacking. The turnover rate is ridiculous and should speak volumes but doesnt. Staff are spread thin, getting tasks upon tasks piled on them without added compensation and your frustrations dont seem to matter. Favoritism is evident; Individual and by which location you work in. DRAMA is an understatement. Inadequate workspaces. Chaotic and inefficient scheduling. Only real good thing is SOME of the providers (MD and/or midlevel) give a darn about your wellbeing.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Everyone is like a family.  TCS allows people to grow in the healthcare field and educates you.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Seeing your patients health get worse.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Family like.  A fun and great place to work.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
TCS is very busy everyday but they work as a Team.
