Pros

Working with patients, Miracle Ear Foundation, excellent training, bonuses

Cons

They try to get you to cold-call people to get them in so the HIS can sell them hearing aids--during a pandemic. I was told I needed to do this and this was the main reason why I put in my resignation. There are too many scripts, too many calls to make, to try to get people to buy these products. The prices on these aids get jacked up every time there is a "newly improved" product--which is at least once or twice a year. HIS are told they should start up-selling customers even before their hearing aids are out of warranty. The franchisee hits hard on keeping the current customers "close" and in contact so they can be sold again and again. There's a percentage of customers with future appointments, and it's monitored every month and sent in an email and hammered over your head that you need better metrics. Calls, calls, calls! Closers are dishonest vultures. Like a previous reviewer said, these people come in during an Open House and try to use whatever tactics they can use to get people to buy. They will come in and act like they're from the "lab" when in reality they are not. And they definitely are NOT audiologists. Boring. Most days it's just you and your HIS working in the office. That is it.

Pros

Great support from all levels of management. Invested in your development and career path. You get to change people lives everyday. Restore communication to those who have hearing loss. Compensated for hard work and success. Benefits and 401k program

Cons

Owned by Amplifon based in Italy. Upper mobility seems limited for those in US. But they are striving to make more opportunities for those in US.

Pros

Good Money and Satisfaction when times are good and you have a lot of new patient appointments.

Cons

Managements only cares about metrics. Marketing will fail for sometimes months causing sales and income to plummet of no fault of your own. You are swindling people with very expensive devices on the premise that our aftercare is somehow different than others.
