Pros

- Rewarding work taking care of patients - Decent 401K - Potential* transfer options throughout most of the country - Good initial training

Cons

- Terrible management cliques, favoritism, and retaliation. - Most front line employee feedback/concerns either ignored or turned against the person. - Having to navigate company "policies" that either change without notice, or are selectively enforced (see favoritism). - Managers often abrasive and target line level employees with unwarranted scrutiny and are only rewarded by fellow management and never held accountable when in the wrong. - Terrible gender and clinical speciality biases present (medic vs. nurse). Turnover is high for nurses because they treat them poorly and pay them poorly.
