IT Department is overworked, under-appreciated and have had their fill.
Pros
The people in the centers. Staff members are honestly great, hard working and care about what they're doing. The majority of staff and doctors in our centers believe in the cause and it shows.
Cons
IT Department has been seemingly restructured down to less than the bare minimum. Nobody I know feels safe in their position and the mantra of "Do more with less" has been taken to the extremes of insanity. The entire department is constantly walking on eggshells due to to the leadership (Or lack thereof). Barely any room for career advancement, lateral moves are the norm and usually remain uncompensated and are often short-lived. I, (And many others) feel the whole company is gradually disintegrating since the restructure and it's a damn shame because we once had a close, hard working and appreciative department which has turned into a "Watch your back" mess. For a company who's 100% reliant on EMR/IT it does not bode well, to witness this happening is a crying shame.
