Pros

Most employees are very friendly. And, if you do your work, there is little chance you'll be layed off, so there is job security. The pay is usually better compared to other hospitals, similar jobs.

Cons

Human Resources instituted a new point system for when you are late or can't come in. After so many points, you get written up and then fired. You can have laboratory-confirmed flu, get sent home, and STILL get points. And, the review system is so ridiculous, and a total waste of time. Most employees think it's a joke.

Pros

Pension plan Training and certifications Free tuition from any public institution in Georgia

Great people and decent benefits, but low pay and poor leadership

Business Outlook

Pros

Teaches you how to be organized, meet a lot of great people, benefits are decent

Cons

Pay is terrible. Leadership does not care about you. You get in trouble for clocking in 7 or 8 mins too early or too late (point system). No career conversations. No career pathing. It isn't normal to want to talk about your career.
