Pros

Coworkers are amazing Cafeteria food is good Laid back about family emergencies (meaning you won't get written up for missing work because your kid is sick) Lots of very kind and loyal patients

Cons

Micromanagement Snitches. If you make a small mistake or gosh forbid seem unhappy outside of your department, someone will tattle to your department director instead of addressing it themselves and management won't stick up for you. Management. You go to them with a problem that you have and they will divert the conversation to bring up some vague incident that occurred a few weeks back where you did something wrong. Management. Nitpicking everything you do. A "the customer is always right" mentality that is abusive to the employees. Patients can show up 2 hours early or late for an appointment but you better make sure that they don't wait for more than 15 minutes or MANAGEMENT will be at your door, which makes you rush through the ones who are on time. Patients can treat employees anyway they want and talk to them like they are garbage and nothing is said to them about how we are helping the and we deserve to be treated with respect. Underpaid

Pros

Supportive coworkers and the use of Epic as the EHR.

Cons

Retirement match only deposited once per year instead of each pay period. This means less potential for gains in your own retirement account on that money throughout the year. And if you leave before the annual match, you forfeit an entire year's worth of company match. Pay is not at market level. In departments that are primarily remote, we are competing for talent among more prestigious orgs and also larger markets with much higher pay. It is nearly impossible to retain talent that isn't local and already accustomed to the lower wages (that have only become more stagnant since the merger). PTO (which includes vacation, holidays, and the first 3 days of illness leave) accrues at a much slower rate than other similarly sized organizations.
