I don't have a lot to say. The training is very intense. They teach us amazing work ethic. Ampath is overall an outstanding company. I'm glad I trained there

I always want to see my collegus happy, I want to see the company Im working for getting bigger and bigger everytime and i enjoy my work especialy when the company is loyal to its employees and also greeting is very important when working with people so dat that they can see the face of the company by you.
Pros
I really like making production and enjoying my work.
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)
Ampath is a Great company to work ,Ampath is huge Organisation which has contributed so much in my career , I really appreciated the opportunity but I am bigger person inside with a lot of potential . I feel like I need more challenges and a change of location ,I need to spread my wings and fly one level up from what I am currently exposed to .I need more challenges and to explore what other organisations can Offer in my career .
It is a very busy company in terms of quantity of patients so I learned to work under pressure, management is accessible, very professional orientated in connection with clients, the most enjoyable part of the job is you meet people from different cultures, they maintain good relationships with clients which make the company productive daily, it is fun relating with clients and colleagues. I was productive work efficiently and had fun

Working for Ampath requieres dedication and hard work. Long hours and time sensitive work. The company takes care of their employees and once you work for them you will never be without a job again. It is a stable company and one of few where you can really feel secure and know that you will be able to go to work the next day.
Its a very good company overall and it meets the needs of the employees. It is a very amazing experience to work for Ampath and the working conditions meet the standards and the salary is very fair.
Work overload, managers constantly involved in your personal matters, whole management system is family, salary is not enough for the amount of work and hours put in.
.Attending to customers being Doctors,walk-in-patients,and hospitals .Customer service is of importance to keep your customers .Shift work .Knowing that you played a part in helping a sick person
I left ampath not only coz of salary but also coz of bad management and unethcal behav. Highly stress Low low pay - only 8000 for intern med tech ridiculous
If you want to work for another lab Rather go to nhls or lancet..............
Great company with great benefits. Stressful working conditions. Need to be motivated and hard working to survive the busy laboratory. Not for the faint hearted.
It was a great company fast growing and very kindly tooth stuff. The issue was salaries company is huge but not ready to do justice to the stuff . I we I could do business again with them only if they will pay reasonable salary. Company itself is a great environment to be there
A good company that offers good opportunities and experience. Fast paced and very pressurized. Ampath thrives for the best internal and external customer service
There isn't much room for growth in the company. The company were reluctant to train employees for further growth and management doesnt allow employees to further themselves.
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.
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.
