Pros
DaVita is a great company with a great culture.
Cons
The great culture only partially permeates down to the Labs. The HR / PS department is a group of people that basically decide your fate. If you are part of their click, then you're good, but if you're not, your out. They influence senior leadership to seal your fate and you get "Managed Out". That's right, with them it's a popularity contest and if you don't make the cut, you're dog food. What's more interesting is that the department is basically unnecessary, HR has been centralized and having several HR / PS people in the Labs is just paying salary for nothing. They do some employee development training... well, the Labs have a training department that can handle that no problem.
