Pros
Stynt as a technology platform is a decent idea. It's like Uber for Dental Hygienists except it does not work.
Kontras
I am a Stynt worker on the platform and have tried to work for them 5 times . on the app. 4 out of 5 times, the app would cancel jobs on me, after I had confirmed and blocked my day. So, Dentists can cancel on you the previous day and there is no penalty leaving the Stynt worker high and dry. How can you book me for a whole day and I block my day for your job and then cancel on me without paying me $0. If I cancel last minute then I get suspended from the platform. Double standards. I finally researched this company and connected with a bunch of RDHs in the Boston area and was appalled at the practices of this company. Check out the CEO on their web page. He is the former small-time incompetent dentist from Prudential Dental Associates in Backbay. I used to temporarily work there through RDH Temp Agency. This was a highly unethical practice. Check out their yelp reviews from 2011-2012 before it was bought by another doctor. Just google the CEO and you will see the review. Also, make sure to do a google image search and you will see him surrounded by babes and you will see what I mean. At the practice, he and his wife were running the shop like a-Deli. The doctor would have temper tantrums, insult the workers and ask us to push expensive procedures to the patient. It was insane. Now, this same guy is running Stynt. If you are a woman, you don't want to work with this person. He discriminates them left and right. I heard that he hired good talent and then after a couple of months forced them to work for less than half their pay. I am so not surprised. One of their customer service managers would call the workers snakes and cockroaches. I bumped into him and he said he was instructed by the CEO to keep the workers on a tight leash. Beware of this company - it is bad news on many levels. Don't work for them. Try On-Diem, it is a better place and they respect their professional workers.
