Why Work at DirectShifts?
At DirectShifts, we build on an impressive legacy of pioneering success and growth. The source of our strength as a company is rooted in our culture and our core purpose and values. Along with the tremendous growth we have experienced at DirectShifts comes the question, Why work at DirectShifts? This article highlights the best reasons for our current internal staff and the essential elements of our company culture.
Prepare employees for success.
From onboarding and training to hit the floor, DirectShifts has created a company culture that sets our employees up for success. Whether you've worked in healthcare before or are new to it, we all know how nerve-wracking starting a new company can be.
Our priority is to make the transition process as smooth as possible with the help of our amazing talent acquisition and development teams.
These teams focus on providing each new team member with training, resources, and informational sessions that dive deep into the various areas we specialize in. At DirectShifts, our expertise is rooted in our people. A well-planned year-round calendar of on-demand training and development programs, whether technical or non-technical, is followed at DirectShifts. This is critical because we want our recent hires to feel confident in their role and like industry experts when it comes time to go solo.
We want our employees to know that we care about their overall well-being, including their professional, mental and physical health.
Exceeding expectations for employee engagement and recognition
While we're passionate about what we do here at DirectShifts, it's not all about work. Employee engagement is at the top of the list when it comes to creating an enviable company culture and maintaining our high employee retention rates. We always make time to celebrate our individual and company successes.
Employee recognition and engagement programs are one of the main pillars of DirectShifts employee culture. Every year, days, weeks, and months are set aside to properly recognize the contribution of our employees to the organization. We follow the tradition of frequent gatherings in fun and family group chats. Celebrations include gifts, giveaways, or team trips/offsite; work or personal anniversaries; life milestones like weddings or adding a new member to the family; employee of the month to celebrate their achievements.
Not only is this a great way to recognize each other's accomplishments, but it's a great way to increase participation and get to know each other outside of the office because we're a 100% remote organization. Our marketing and engagement team works hard to plan inclusive corporate events that bring people together.
Plus, there's also a popular peer-to-peer digital recognition platform! Every day, employees show appreciation to their co-workers by handing out praise points on a digital platform that is used to measure success and scorecard goals and achievements throughout the year. When employees need to get away from their desks, our breakout room is a hot spot for socializing, playing games, and enjoying a favorite snack. The HR team organizes a team networking event called "Happy Hours" for the whole company, where fun games, activities, and various celebrations and special occasions are celebrated.
To maintain a positive culture and stay lighthearted, we praise and recognize our employees for their achievements. By this we mean the ability to walk into each other's offices (open door policy), ask for help, bounce ideas off our desks, and even schedule a time to meet with our leadership team. Fundamentally, we value the value and diversity that everyone contributes and foster an environment where people achieve their goals.
Most importantly, our employees love the endless opportunities to make a difference in the healthcare industry and the communities we serve. For our recruiters, it's not just about placing as many doctors as possible. It's about doing the right thing to positively impact our healthcare system, starting with improving the quality of life for healthcare workers. Every relationship our experts develop with their doctors is special. You could even think of them as career coaches who are ready to provide support when needed.
Outside of our office, DirectShifts empowers our employees to make a difference. We make it a priority to positively impact our community by giving back in any way we can. We do this by holding various events, organizing volunteer opportunities for employees, financially supporting local causes, and so on! Do you have a cause you care about? Let us know! We are always open to new ideas on how we can impact, whether big or small.
Are you ready for the challenge? DirectShifts has endless opportunities for professional growth. We want our employees to explore their careers and build new skills and are willing to provide the tools to do so. Your vote is just as important to us. Are you interested in something? Ask a question! Want to settle into a new role? Talk to your manager! Have an idea how we can improve the process? Share it with us!
