Unethical to the bone

Senior Medical Technologist (Former Employee) – Pretoria, Gauteng – 6 September 2018

This could be the best lab in the world, but because of their unethical behavior nothing will come of it. I see no plans to change things, it goes against everything I stand for (high quality and correct results)
The pay is the worst in the industry and they have capped overtime rates. (Not according to your salary)

Pros

Nothing

Cons

You have to lower your standards to fit in

Debtors Assistant Manager (Former Employee) – Durban, KwaZulu-Natal – 3 November 2017

I never had a quite day at work. Each day had its own demands and deadlines that had to be met to ensure all aspects of work handled.

You never stop learning, and the knowledge I gained from the company I will carry with me for the rest of my life and apply.

Ampath provide on going training to staff to ensure they competent to do the job and keeping up with latest technology.

Each employee had respect for each others culture.

the most enjoyable part was to see customer satisfaction and meeting deadlines/targets.

Its what you make of it and how you deliver on a day to day basis

Fun, learning environment

PhlebotomyTechnician (Current Employee) – Pretoria, Gauteng – 21 March 2017

I am currently working for a wonderful company which has many benifits as where I am still a student in my final year and already had the privillage to enjoy all the company benifits from my first year. The management team is very helpful and will go out of their if you need anything. The best part of a day in the job is when I'm working with different people on a daily basis which is what I enjoy the most.

Training orientated work enviroment

Medical technologist (MT) (Current Employee) – Durban, KwaZulu-Natal – 21 March 2017

A general day includes Quality control of instruments, and manual procedures, Running all urgent laboratory tests, analyzing these samples and result to ensure that they are the patients true results. Communication with Doctors and hospital staff and the laboratories phlebotomists and clerical staff. This is a fast paced environment with multiple activities occurring the same time. As a medical technologist in my laboratory you work alone for a great deal of the day in which you are responsible for running the laboratory and attend to any issues that my arise at the laboratory.

As an individual you are the person to make an environment you work to be fun.

Lab Coordinator (Current Employee) – KwaZulu-Natal – 12 March 2017

I love my job. Following the proper protocols and policies as per my job goes a long way. I tend to find my job very easy although its challenging. The sense of urgency is always required with every patient results I deal with. Liasing with Doctors is one of the most difficult part of the job, but once trust and loyalty is built with the Doctors its a walk in the park. As now the Doctors I deal with know me on a First Name basis.I am a very friendly person,always with a smile no matter how rough or hard my day is. I get along with everyone at my workplace. I have alot of passion with my job function and always pay attention to detail. Thank you.

Good place to grow

Courier driver (Former Employee) – Durban North, KwaZulu-Natal – 11 February 2017

Used to working at Umhlanga.
I used to ride a bike not less than 250km/day and only get off on sunday if it not my week for overtime.
Stressful place where management enforcing everything with out understanding a situation and risk of an employee.
But main lab westridge is much better.
And what I like about Ampath is a big company you can grow,You can even become a doctor if you are the hard worker and willing to study especial if you have maths and Physics.

Pros

No free lunch

Cons

Very long hours
