Pros

Bright people and stimulating work with high standards but quite political in managing work teams. Stress levelas are high due to needing to cut millions of dollars from the annual budget. Benefits are average, not great, as they do just enough to attract talented people. Commited people can find plenty of advancement opportunities due to the rapid pace of shifhting alliances within and between departments. Beware, one minute you get good support and the next minute you can be seen as 'the problem'.

Cons

Their motto is "Patients First" which is OK but, in actuality, employees are "second" as the motto becomes a big stick used to beat down employees. Archaic, militaristic, top-down power structure where the M.D.'s have all the power, God forbid 'lower' health workers have a say. This results in huge turnover of nurses and non-MD's.

Akron General: Less staff, more work, less patient care, more profit.

Pros

You work for a well respected well known company. You get decent pay.

Cons

Insurance is expensive, copays are expensive, $250 for an emergency room visit? You’re pushed to profit the Clinic, not to care properly for patients. You are overworked and understaffed. There is a lack of transparency, managers use favoritism to keep or cut your hours or provide you with food scheduled shifts. Upper management ignores complaints from lower staff and dodges providing answers. Patients are forced to have short, rushed exams, with decreased concern or care due to pressure from more patients waiting and lack of caregivers available. You will do the work of three people without any appreciation. You won’t get full lunches, but reprimanded for clocking out no lunch too many times. The size of managment continues to increase while staffing on the bottom decreases. We are told to make patients a priority, but are powerless to due to our environment. Money drives this company. Managment is awful.

Pros

The great team I work with, the medical benefits.

Cons

Terrible management, Nepotism, having to use PTO for holidays that they force you to take. Terrible pay for the responsibilities that are placed upon you.
