CND Life Sciences offers a substantial compensation package that recognizes both your clinical expertise and leadership responsibilities. As Medical Director and Pathology Group Leader, you'll receive a base salary of $360,000 in your first year, with a guaranteed increase to $375,000 in your second year—a strong commitment to your long-term value to the organization. Beyond this competitive base, you'll be eligible for a performance bonus of 25% of your salary, creating a total first-year target compensation of $432,000. This structured approach to compensation progression demonstrates CND's investment in your success and commitment to maintaining competitive compensation as your role evolves.
Your annual performance bonus at CND is designed to reward excellence rather than simply meeting minimum expectations. The 25% bonus potential is significantly higher than the 20% typically offered to staff pathologists, acknowledging the additional leadership responsibilities of your role. This bonus is based on a combination of company performance (as approved by the board) and your individual performance rating, creating a transparent connection between your contributions and your compensation.
CND values your continued professional growth and expertise development with a generous Continuing Medical Education package. You'll receive a dedicated CME week in addition to your regular vacation time, accompanied by a $5,000 annual allowance for conference attendance, courses, and educational materials.
Your benefits package includes premium health coverage through Banner|Aetna, with multiple plan options including PPO and HSA plans. CND demonstrates its commitment to your wellbeing by covering 85–80% of employee premiums and 80–75% of dependent premiums. The medical benefits are complemented by dental and vision coverage, and the Health Your Way wellness program offers incentives for completing wellness activities.
CND provides robust financial security benefits that protect both you and your family. You'll receive company-paid life insurance equal to $100,000, short- and long-term disability coverage, and a 401(k) retirement plan with generous employer matching. You’ll also participate in CND’s stock option program, aligning your success with the company’s growth.
CND recognizes the importance of time away from work for rest, family, and personal pursuits. You'll receive four weeks of Paid Time Off annually, plus six sick days (48 hours) and nine paid holidays including Juneteenth and the day after Thanksgiving.
Understanding that a move to Scottsdale may be part of your decision, CND offers comprehensive relocation assistance to ensure a smooth transition for you and your family. This includes moving expenses and support throughout the onboarding process.
CND offers additional voluntary benefits through Assurity that allow you to customize your coverage. These include accident, critical illness, hospital stay coverage, and protection against major health events—providing tax-free benefits paid directly to you.
The comprehensive compensation and benefits package offered by CND Life Sciences represents an exceptional value proposition rarely found in traditional pathology settings. With a guaranteed base salary progression, substantial bonus potential, generous benefits coverage, and equity participation, this package rewards both your immediate contributions and long-term commitment. You'll enjoy financial rewards that recognize your expertise while benefiting from policies that support work-life balance, professional development, and personal wellbeing.
