### "Shift Hound" — 5.0/5

> **danielle** | *19 October 2018* | Medical Practice | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love being able to check my schedule from anywhere at anytime and make PTO requests on my own.
> 
> **Cons**: Could be my employer chose to limit this but I don't like that I can not see the who is scheduled in other office locations, which would be helpful when trying to find someone to cover a shift.
