No micro management
Phlebotomist (Current Employee) - State College, PA - August 17, 2022
No micro management is the best part. Come to work, do your job, and go home. Simple as that. Don’t get involved with drama. It’s hard to keep staff though cause most people don’t wanna work anymore
Pros
Atmosphere
Cons
Super busy times

Patient Care Coordinator (Current Employee) - Santa Ana, CA - August 17, 2022
Mentally draining , spend 8 hours or more calling people and harassing them to do services they can do with their own doctor , everything is numbers , you must make appts or you get written up and coached … I feel like we are treated like children instead of adults , just horrible , really calling the same people from different health /same health plans on the daily , favoritism and competition to pit us against each other to see who can get the most appointments so childish , we aren’t even patient care coordinator we are just simple schedulers or customer service reps.. they just try to make it nice and give us this fancy title…high turn over rate, new hires come and go , not such a great job wouldn’t recommend I could go on and on but I have I clock in soon …sigh

Lots if Work
Client Order Clerk (Former Employee) - Northridge, CA - August 16, 2022
Not much guidance . When turnover happens it is all at once. Can get by better with charm then work/ambition. However, flexible for those with children and/or other family obligations.

Excessive work with low pay
Patient Service Representative II (Current Employee) - Sacramento County, CA - August 15, 2022
Management expects employees to do more and more each day without pay compensation. Now adding on electronic check-in for patients that does not reduce waiting time for patients. Their goal is for each phlebotomist to check in, process patient order, draw patient, process samples, prep room for next patient, call next patient all within 10 minutes not taking in consideration of degree of draw , language barrier,etc. Have seen a lot of phlebotomist start at Quest and leave as soon as they feel comfortable as a Phlebotomist. Pay starts around $16.00/hr. Yearly raises are between .35 and .55 cents an hour. Healthcare is horrible!!! Majority of workers use spousal insurance.
Pros
Bonus at end of year based on company revenue
Cons
Healthcare, workload

Must be experienced for this company
Patient Service Representative II (Current Employee) - Cambridge, MD - August 14, 2022
The work is similar to Labcorp just very different in regards to computer software. They also use proprietary tubes for their specific machines. You actually have to learn your order of draw and tube preparations. Not a company for someone directly out of school or someone who has less than 2 to 3 yrs experience.

Great Co-Workers
Route Service Representative (Former Employee) - Marlborough, MA - August 13, 2022
Co-Workers were always willing to offer me help as was management. My supervisor was always there to offer help. For a part time job it worked out very well.

Beware of the Logistics Department very Discriminatory
Dispatcher (Current Employee) - Tampa, FL - August 11, 2022
A place with limited growth and overall favoritism. Everyone either has a connection by family or are sleeping with someone in management, which is typical of most call centers.

Fast-paced environment
Quality Control Specialist (Former Employee) - Los Angeles, CA - August 11, 2022
Time sensitivity is critical in the testing facility. Be sure to adjust to learning accuracy and precision as a constant. Nice employees. Great facility.

Jobs at Quest Diagnostics
Learn new things but terrible work environment.
Medical Technologist (Former Employee) - Chantilly, VA - August 9, 2022
I enjoyed learning new things in my scope of field and testing techniques. It is just terrible because management is terrible and creates a toxic environment where there are no repercussions for it. Management has been there for 10+ years so their heads are in the clouds instead of reality.

Productive and job security
Histotechnician (Former Employee) - Indianapolis, IN - August 9, 2022
Fast paced, mixed culture, great atmosphere, and was expected to complete quota. Overall this is usually achievable, and you stay busy which is nice.

Fast paced
Phlebotomist (Former Employee) - Cuyahoga Falls, OH - August 8, 2022
good company to work for overall. complaints. Pay could be higher, will not work with your schedule at all. You have a lot of responsibilities on the job besides doing phlebotomy.

Ok
Phlebotomist/Lab Assistant (Former Employee) - Langhorne, PA - August 7, 2022
Work hard just like any medical job and not always given what you deserve pay is so so for phlebotomy. Workers do feel over work under paid but again it’s not much different from other companies. Do provide regular uniforms and descent benefits. Could use a manager there for nights it’s not always safe on your own.

Stressful environment unorganized
Cyto tech prep.II (Former Employee) - St. Louis, MO - August 7, 2022
I have learned alot over the past 25 yrs and I practiced putting the patient first at all times! Quest is not a bad company they are just in it too much for the money ! And are not willing to try change to better their departments and all their unhappy employees that are not compensated properly they do what they want to do for a selective few!

Being on my own. I make my own decisions and calls on a daily basis.
Rep, PS II Phlebotomist (Current Employee) - Wichita Falls, TX - August 5, 2022
Quest is a great company. Patient services and quality is at the top of the list. I would just like to be closer to home and a safer area to see my patients.

Work load
Processor (Current Employee) - Birmingham, AL - August 4, 2022
Very very light load. Only work 2-3 hours per day and still have to sit around and wait for your shift to end with nothing else to do. Don’t get me wrong it can be cool at first but it does drain you when you just sitting in an office not doing anything for 5-6 hours a day.

Horrible place to work in.
Phlebotomist III / Float (Current Employee) - Napa, CA - August 3, 2022
They do not care for you in this company, managers and leads lack communication, as well as knowledge, they try intimidate you with false information. Do not recommend. This company has many valuable employees, but Quest Diagnostics does not deserve them.
