Pros

Southern Arizona's only Level I Trauma Center, transplant center and academic teaching facility. Professional staff seems to take pride in their work. The job is always interesting.

Cons

Entry-level workers (i.e. patient care technicians, janitorial staff, etc.) do not appear to take pride in their work and their apathy shows. The hospital is just dirty in general and some people act as if they are put out by having to actually work. Establishment of "University of Arizona Health Network" seems haphazard and like management is just operating on the fly at this point. $3 million was spent on "rebranding" and the hospital can't even afford to provide the staff new badges. Hospital expansion, at least in non-direct patient care departments, has resulted in the creation of unnecessary mid-level management positions, where even the existing positions were superfluous. The addition of these positions does not seem to have resulted in noticeable improvement in operations.

Pros

This review isn't about the pros of working for Banner Medical Group.

Cons

The last couple of years with BMG, many current and former leaders have encountered ongoing challenges related to the senior leadership team's (Ops Directors and above) behavior and accountability. Expectations and disciplinary actions are not applied consistently, and when disciplinary actions are applied, it is retaliatory for speaking up about these inconsistencies. This has created a culture of distrust and fear between the clinic leadership teams and Ops Directors/Senior Ops Directors. It also goes against Banner's "If you see something, say something" campaign. The HR team has also contributed to the growing fear and distrust by not following their own guidelines, and by the ERC's showing their bias against leaders through their tone of voice when talking with you, baseless accusations against leadership, and approving corrective actions that are vague and missing specific details of the incident that someone is being written up for. It also raises concerns amongst clinic leaders when multiple leaders bring forward the same concerns and issues about Ops Directors over a lengthy period of time and we're told, "we couldn't corroborate your concerns." And when multiple leaders provide ample evidence (Chronological Management Records, Teams chats, email chains, etc.) to disprove these false accusations and you're still placed into corrective action, the word corruption starts to become applicable.
