The most useful review selected by Indeed
Good entry job. No room to grow. Pays new hires MORE than giving raises to staff that’s hardworking.Management sucks. They never check on staff.Majority of the supervisors and admin are unapproachable. Facilities Director is rude and lazy. Expects more from staff with no extra pay. Stingey with raises unless you are favored. A few good apples in the group. Great benefits. Worklife balance is great. PTO accrual is decent.

Pros

Some nice coworkers. 1 hour lunch.

Cons

Management

Fun place to work, amazing supervisor

The job is very fast-paced but the team is very supportive and everyone there wants you to succeed. The supervisor is AMAZING! She is the kindest soul on the planet and an angel to work under. She actually motivates you to learn more and will always support you when you need it.

Complete Overhaul of Management

I was nervous taking a position when they told me there had a been a complete overhaul of management. To my surprise, management is very hands on in the medical department. All the supervisors round more than once to check if we need help. They have even helped when needed. You do not find that in other places. They apparently have changed orientation too, as my orientation schedule was over a month long. It appears they are a growing company and with that comes change and an opportunity to grow. I am excited for the potential to grow in my career.

Pros

1 hour lunch, 2-15 minute paid breaks, great PTO, 100% vested 401K, Off Weekends & Holidays! Short Day Fridays. Try to accommodate schedules due to child care issues, etc.

Why I give this company 5 stars

5 stars for the 5 beneficial things I learned here:1. I'm able to recognize extremely poor upper management. When you have a COO that is also the only grant writer, operational decisions are made based on approved grants without first consulting with department heads or subject matter experts. Upper management does not care if something is unfeasible - there is a grant for it, therefore, it will happen.2. I learned to recognize signs of stress and low morale. Take a careful look at the employees next time for you will see the paleness of their skin, the dark soulless gaze of their eyes, and the twitching muscles behind the forced smiles. High employee turnover is a strong sign too.3. I learned the value of continuing education and training. This company expects you to already have ALL the knowledge and experience prior to being hired, because they will not pay a penny for you to professionally develop yourself even when it is beneficial for the company. So I continued to learn and get additional training on my own, which is a great accomplishment for myself. The company, however, will pay for upper management to attend training and conferences out of state.4. Camaraderie. You find solace in your coworkers amidst the abyss of the company. When they, too, are experiencing inadequate treatment from a company that claims its employees are family, you form these amazing unbreakable bonds.5. I found my self-worth. Despite being severely underpaid according to market value, I performed my best and accomplished so much for the company. I grew a backbone when my leaders should've. -

Konza does not know how to retain employees. Upward mobility is non-existent and the benefits, though good, do not make up for the lack of salary.

I worked in IT and they fired my entire department except for me, I asked for a raise and they considered that my "letter of resignation". There was no counter-offer to the amount I wanted, it was just a "no" despite me being the only employee left in IT. They do not value their employees and management cant seem to understand why there is so much turnover.

Pros

Benefits

Cons

Admin doesn't know what their doing, training is almost non-existent .

Teamwork

I was there from 2017-2018 working reception on the medical side and I enjoyed the teamwork we had among us. Between billing, medical records and reception; there was always coverage for another and the work flow just went smoothly.

Pros

Teamwork

Cons

Continuous changes to how things needed to be done

Starter Job

Great entry level job , but definitely not a forever job. Little to no advancement opportunities available. This can be a fast paced environment so adequate training may be difficult at times. Supportive coworkers. There’s always someone available to help. Covid screenings done at front door to limit exposure. 1 hour lunch breaks were great !

Pros

Team oriented, Flexibility, 1 hour Lunch Break, Decent Pay, Good Health Ins. Benefits

Cons

No advancement opportunities

Bad

Toxic work environment, clique, mean girl culture, management listens to respond not to understand, employee problems not dealt with directly instead management will belittle less “popular” employees

Pros

Short work day on Friday

Cons

Too many to list

Don't expect much

Work-life balanceThe vacation time is pretty great, but it needs to be for as often as you’re not going to want to be there.Pay & benefitsYour pay is based on how well you fit in with the “it crowd”, not the amount of work you put into your job. So suck up, don’t work too hard. You get decent sick pay, but unless you’re out for more than a couple of days you’ll be eating your vacation time before they let you touch a second of your sick leave. The dental benefits are great. The medical benefits aren’t worth what you pay for them if you go anywhere other than Konza for services.Job security and advancementAdvancement opportunities are given to those favored by upper management. If you make it up the ranks expect to do more than one persons job for half the pay.ManagementTruth be told, if the current CEO was removed this clinic would probably function a lot better. He has a tendency to place people in lead positions and then proceed to undermine them the first time someone complains about their management style. Management receives no support from him if they are not favored so it should come as no surprise that they eventually give up trying to be effective in their positions.CultureIf you remember what it was like to be in high school where the popular kids thought they ruled the school, this clinic is a lot like that. They’re just more subtle about it.OverallDecent pay. Benefits are more expensive than they are useful. Nice vacation time which you’ll need because you’ll want to get away from this place. Don’t expect to be paid more than you are liked.

Stay away!

The employees are rude and believe they are better than everyone. If you are not in their "clique" they run you off. Their is ABSOLUTELY no professionalism! The providers have no value for patient care , it's all a numbers game to them. The only way a patient gets treated with respect is if they are friends with someone in the facility. Training is non existent. It's worse than an all girls high school!

Overall a great place to work

I enjoyed working at Konza I wished I had never left. I was pretty much in control of my department everyone trusted my judgment and knowledge. My CEO was very understanding with emergency leave and a moment notice

Fun, Fast paced, great place to work

I would run patients for my providers. I would intake patient information and report to the provider. I learned to be a better person and grew to be more proficient with my job.

Don’t work here

Unless your head is shoved up the bosses butt, you will not make it here. They don’t care about your personal life so don’t let them lie to you. Be their personal servant all the time or you will not be doing good enough. And that’s just Dental.

Pros

Pay is okay

Cons

Literally everything else.

Hostile work environment

They micromanage you and do not give raises. Everyone gets a poor job evaluation expect for the ones that are friends with the boss. The turn over is very high. I have seen so many nurses leave due to management being unfair.

Pros

Free lunch from vendors. Helping the community.

Cons

Micromanage, poor communication.

Everyone cared about patient care.

Working for a Community Health Center is a unique experience as we serve all patients regardless of their ability to pay and provide service to the most medically vulnerable populations in our communities. Community Health Centers allow professionals to fully realize why they got into health care to begin with; to treat patients in need of care.

Listing cons seldom creates change.
