stressful to work at this time

Outpatient Medical Coder (Current Employee) - Jefferson, LA - September 14, 2018

this company used to be a very good place to work. it has become so stressful with sooo many managers in between, so many different changes on a weekly basis. it's just mentally consuming and exhausting, messes with your morale.

Pros

pretty good benefits

Cons

no job advancement, no job education, too many changes weekly

Productive and fun place to work at

CODER INTERN (Former Employee) - New Orleans, LA - May 11, 2015

A typical day at work involves learning to bill and code using epic. I learned how to code medical charts in the real world and I had wonderful co-workers. The most enjoyable part of the job is learning new things.
