      Pros

      Used to be a great company that took the long term view. It treated it's people well, and was able to recruit great people.

      Cons

      BSC no longer has any long-term view or concern for its staff. Everything is about hitting this quarter/year's figures (generally cost reductions) and anyone is expendable. Very political atmosphere where who you know is often more important than what you know or being willing to take risks to move the business forward.

      Pros

      Favorites are rewarded with bonuses and promotions. Make a difference in the lives of patients Good Commute - not in city Excellent cafeteria food. Free Parking. Good culture for politicians.

      Cons

      Management identifies "scape goats" early in career and blames them for when projects are not set up to succeed. Management does not take accountability at all. Ultimately scape goats are put into an HR corrective action and fired. Even if you are identified as a good steady performer then it is a matter of time before you get laid off. They only want to keep the top 35% of the work force. Overtime is expected without compensation. You are expected to "volunteer" for extra work and if you do not then you will get a bad review. Favortism is the mantra of management. Not objective performance. No....I am not just lashing out. This is an honest review. Just ask someone who works there.
