Pros

Coworkers are amazing people. Hospital is chronically understaffed, yet the team pulls together to give the best quality of care possible to the patients. Decent benefits.

Cons

So many poor management decisions I don't even know where to start! HR does not uphold company policies consistently, and undermines manager's efforts to uphold standards in their own departments. Impossible to fire anyone unless the CEO doesn't like them, then they're gone overnight! CEO at my hospital targets people openly, is very demeaning if he doesn't understand or like what you have to say. The organization as a whole cuts corners everywhere, so we don't have the tools we really need to do our jobs both well and efficiently. Forced time off during the summer, which has a lower census. Chronic understaffing, and leadership will not deal with issues directly unless there is a crisis. I know at my hospital a mass exodus of staff in multiple departments is not far off.

Pros

Pros include; nice Christmas Party.

Cons

Employee morale is low in IS/IT which may be associated to (1) a high turn over in leadership (2) lack of IT/IS direction and strategy and (3) mold in building Additionally, IT/IS does not employ standardized processes or frameworks and is not aligned with the business.

Pros

Great relationship with our Doctors, patients and coworkers

Cons

Administration is unjust, unfair, and do not appreciate experience; may fire anyone at anytime for any reason. The Doctors are powerless to stop the empowered admin team. To quote a CHS physician "The Admin team lives in their own little kingdom...and they think they don't need Doctors or Nurses." Low pay as well, inconsistent and arbitrary rules. Dishonorable company
