Pros

Work Life Balance, Start time 7am-9am, Work from home opportunities after 9 months of employment.

Cons

Upper Management does absolutely nothing. Too many useless meetings. Pay. Allow ALL employees the opportunity to work from home.

Pros

Generous PTO policy if you are able to take your time off. Severance policy is also generous if you have worked there for 3 years or less.

Cons

Everything else. No leadership, poor pay, you will not be given the tools you need to do your job. The mission is not adhered to in any way.

Overall the facility is maintained well and some things are fixed relatively quickly. Nurses are given a decent amount of autonomy.

Cons

UNSAFE staffing. No nursing unit educators leading to less competent nurses. New Sound Physician group full of travel docs giving UNSAFE orders for patients. I currently would not bring my family here. Benefits are lacking, 403b match is a joke compared to other places I've worked. Recognition for employment is also laughable, you may get a printed generic "thanks for being her" card after 5 years. No meals provided for staff who have to work holidays. Heck, we had to donate blood just to get a turkey around Thanksgiving. Currently a lot of administrative people are being laid of (some with 20+ years of service) less than two weeks away from Christmas. Meanwhile the CEO of Ascension, Anthony Tersigni, is the highest paid nonprofit CEO of around 17 million...
