Pros

large has access to a lot of technology and talent which it puts to use in a haphazard way there is lip service provided about putting the patient first appearances are valued over substance

Cons

poorly run behemoth that seeks to stretch every single penny patient care and excellence are sought only if within the budget which is the gold standard not patient safety nor clinical excellence

Pros

Locations in the valley which are close to home. Benefits are comparable to other organizations. In general, coworkers are collegial.

Cons

I would reiterate what was said previously- management sucks. The system is based on cronyism, with promotion from within. There are way too many people who simply fill a job title and are either not qualified or lack serious vision, lack the intelligence and experience, and seem to be collecting a paycheck. Nobody can be removed from a management position barring an act of God. The mission statement is highly misleading, since roadblocks to providing excellent patient care are constantly put up by anyone at a management level. Too much passing the buck - nobody really makes a decision, it simply gets passed on to the next person, or corporate, or whomever. Corporate office makes decisions that affect patient care without really understanding what is going on in the facility. When you look at the "health system", why is it that there are not more health professionals (doctors and nurses) in management positions? It is all business people. That seems a strange way to run a medical business.

Pros

good benefits, fairly good pay, some good co workers

Cons

Worst place I've ever seen in over 40 years of health industry employment as far as middle and upper management. They're incompetent, rude and poor communicators. They don't care about patient care, only how they can boost profits to give themselves bonuses. They don't listen to employee complaints or suggestions and have ruthless vacation policies. You can work a 70 hour week with no overtime then they expect you to take some of your limited time off if you work part of a day. They publish great sounding mission statements then ignore them. They tolerate incompetent workers because it's easier to ignore them rather than improve them or fire them. They're lax in bill collection and often allow patients to stay in the system without paying when they should be removed, yet they fire employees key to good patient care and overload others in order to improve profits.
