Pros

Great people to work with, lots of learning opportunities

Cons

Trying to advocate for staff needs is like pulling teeth. Your manager has to run it by their manager who has to take it up several more rungs on the ladder to someone who can make a decision but has no clue what it’s actually like to work as staff and thus more than often they’ll decide it’s not worth the money (even if it’s nominal and Duke definitely has the funds).

Pros

Healthcare Benefit packages cover a lot, whether you're single or married with dependents. Good learning environment for new RNs or transferring RNs. Supportive management.

Cons

Very few dentists in the area accept their dental plan. You have to work there for a specific amount of hours within a one year time frame before they'll let you take any parental leave. So you or a partner shouldn't get pregnant and deliver before you've been there at least 10 months or so. Also, tell everyone in your family not to potentially get sick with a terrible illness because the same policy applies to them approving FMLA.
