Pros

Nada. Zip. Zero. "I can't think of any right now."

Cons

Liars. When they take over, they are so syrupy sweet, say everything they think you want to hear to placate you, and promise you that nothing will change. Then, within 6-12 months, you will be laid off and the charts will be sent to India and/or Lithuania. It's a define pattern with them and that is their goal. Of all the coders that were either let go or quit, they didn't replace a single one. Not even the lead coders. Hmm, I wonder why?! Oh, that's right, because their goal is to send all of the charts to other countries. I wonder how the patients of these hospitals would feel if they knew that all of their PHI is being sent to India?

Pros

The voluntary separation offer was good.

Cons

I and hundreds of colleagues were transferred from Providence Health & Services to R1. We were told we were guaranteed our jobs for a year. They started offering voluntary separation packages less than a year in. This was suspicious. I didn't take the first couple of offers, but eventually I did - things were feeling uneasy. Since leaving I've heard that there were several layoffs. R1's India team has taken over a lot of the coding we were doing. In the reviews I read before we started with R1 I know losing jobs to the India team was common. I'm glad I left when I did but it's been hard finding a new job.
