Pros
Allina has many locations, you can travel across the company. If your family has to move for one reason or another, there is likey another Allina facility near.
Cons
Allina Hospitals and Clinics has a huge problems with communication. Many things are "kept secret" from employees in the planning phases. This discourages employees when changes are made without input from those it directly effects. Ineffective changes are made, time is wasted spending time fixing things in the retroactive phase of a project vs being proactive. Secondly, Allina, in general, including HR is not dedicated or supportive to its current employees. Current employees can apply for a position within their current facitily and the applications are not even sent to this facility...shouldn't lateral transfers within a facility take presendence (or at least be considered!)? Many Allina facilities are currently encouraging "float" positions vs stationary positions within departments. This creates less confidence in ones job and you move about. It also discourages the ability to build teams and work together.
