Pros

Salaries are competitive. Benefits are not.

Cons

Benefits are lousy and even though they use the terms such as 'healthy life' their benefits' package do not reflect it. Poor vacation and personal time banks. Time off policies are not applied consistently, if you are lucky enough to have a manager that likes you then you will experience some flexibility; if not, then good luck to you. Senior to Mid-level leadership is NOT made accountable but yet those in not a leadership roles will have to follow very strict guidelines. Not a friendly work environment to people of creative thinking and also people of color - at any position or level. This organization was a huge disappointment. Their administrative practices and systems are outdated. Leadership spends a lot of time undercutting each other even though they pretend to be cooperating with each other.

Pros

Baystate has strong, supportive teams throughout the organization. Although it is a HUGE organization, I don't feel like a number, or lost in the shuffle. You can feel the connection to our mission, even if not in a patient care setting. I do find a lot of support from management, if you take the initiative to go for it. Culture of the company is positive and community driven.

Cons

Budget problems have stopped some travel and conference opportunities. Hopefully it will come back. No other real complaints here.
