DaVita Reviews
Poor Working Relationships
02/16/2025 - Riverside, CA
Pros
The employer has good medical benefits, and a stock purchase plan.
Cons
Managers are often burnt out and this trickles down to the whole team. By far the most toxic work environment I have ever worked for. The worst part is that you cannot report anything to HR since their “people services” is non existent.
Pretty solid company

Pros
It’s a great place to get your foot in the door and train to gain healthcare experience.
Cons
Management and their superiors see numbers, not employees.
Ok
02/18/2025 - Buffalo, NY
Pros
It was a experience. Not a bad place to work
Cons
Short staffed during the time because of covid
Meaningful work, no security or advancement
02/23/2025 - Lancaster, PA
Pros
Dialysis is fun fast paced challenging work that allows great 1:1 interaction with patients. Medical insurance is great.
Cons
DaVita has some financial challenges right now so they are trying to balance the budget by minimizing labor hours. For example they call full time 30 hours a week and most weeks no one gets more than 35. Float pool has next to nothing right now. I find myself exploring options of a second job or leaving all together to be able to pay my bills.

numbers over patients
02/26/2025 - Washington, DC
Pros
Diverse environment with teammates and patients.

Numbers matter more than patients in all modalities. Goals are driven by numbers not patient safety or patient satisfaction. Management sends hundreds of emails weekly to meet. their goals.

Toxic environment
02/27/2025 - Federal Way, WA
Pros
You have a job and some incomeYou will get a reference and skills for a better job
Cons
*Multiple people in several teams have made the remark that you have to be doing a job for ~1.5 years before you get a promotion and fair pay for the job you're doing*Extremely toxic work environment which starts from leadership and trickles down*The pay is a joke for what you are doing, you may as well work at McDonalds.*Executive leadership shares details of their expensive habits and fancy trips while teammates are openly complaining because they don’t make enough money to pay bills and buy food or gas to even get to work.*DaVita over the past 2-3 years have been force-firing long-term teammates who make more money than what they can pay a younger and less experienced employee *DaVita has been hiring people who are not experienced enough to do the job leaving each department weaker and weaker*DaVita is internally well-known as the “stepping stone job” or the Walmart of dialysis*DaVita lies to their employees with regards to expected pay and the Bridge Program*DaVita employees are so unhappy across the board the patients have noticed the downfall and are finding other places to get their dialysis done*Private pay patients are expected to pay ~$6k per treatment*the secret expectation is that you do part of your job off the clock across multiple teams; because they don’t hire qualified people or the turnover is just so high the work falls on the long-timers, you are constantly told to get the work done or your performance review is garbage but there’s not enough time in the day to actually get the work done; people are often times found working at 2am and again at 8am due to work overload or stress
