Pros

Good benefits. Exposure to cutting edge technology and procedures.

Cons

Always short-staffed. Nurse to patient ratio higher than what you're told when hired and unsafe for high acuity patients. Constantly changing policies & procedures which you are required to keep yourself abreast of. No nurse advocacy, contrary to what they say at Orientation. Inconsistent rule enforcement. Uninvolved management relies on hearsay to form opinions & base their action on, instead of knowing individuals. Throw employees under the bus, even if a difficult patient of family member complains. If you like the feeling of working with "a gun to your head" and inadvertently making a wrong move, then BJH is for you!

Pros

Education CAN be paid for, but you are locked into a contract and cannot switch positions

Cons

Raises mean nothing. 53 cents is unlivable. incredibly demanding job. Always short staffed so you are doing 2 - 4 peoples worth of work. Constant training that needs to be done every 3 months.
