Pros

The work the organization does for children is something to be proud of. At the end of the day no matter how bad your daily work experience has been, you feel better knowing that in some way your work helped a child in need.

Cons

There is a huge disconnect between teams, managers, and etc. People are more worried about self preservation than doing the right thing. Many of the employees have been with Children's for many years...but this is not a plus. They are very behind the times in the way they conduct day to day business, they more concerned about their employment and preserving it than doing what is right, and they tend only work well with people of the exact same mind set as them. This is not the place for fresh new ideas. Either fit in and go with the statuesque (no matter right or wrong) or look for a new job. Most of your time employed with Children's will be an up hill fight so be prepared.

Pros

Room for advancement and career building, magnet hospital. The pay is pretty good. It's also very easy to apply for transfer within the hospital.

Cons

lack of communication, incompetent management I worked in a non clinical area. It took three years for me to get used to the dysfunction of my department. Favoritism, lack of communication, disrespect for others was part of the every day grind for me. I'm the kind of individual that likes to get a job done and make it pleasurable for others. I was odd man out, that's for sure. I am now licensed to work as a professional on the clinical side. I applied for a new position (prior to my leaving) and was called for an interview. I was hoping the experience would be different, but alas, it was not. The individual that did my interview got very rude with me and threw questions that were quite inappropriate to ask during a professional interview. It was evident that this person was trying to make me uncomfortable or look bad, not sure. Even if I was offered the transfer, I would have declined it. I would rather take a pay cut and work for/with professionals that have respect for others and the job they claim they love so much. My career wouldn't have survived here because I have boundaries and call people on it when they cross them. I'm also a fan of transparency when doing a job. That's not something that is valued in this institution so I decided to go somewhere that could use my qualities and skills.
