Demoralizing culture - Human Resources Baystate Health Employee Review

Pros

Some fairly well-run business units in the non-clinical areas. Many passionate, well-meaning people.

Cons

It's a pretty broken culture on the corporate side. Hierarchical isn't a strong enough word. Overly, arbitrarily complex processes lead to exception-based activity as the norm. Obvious solutions requiring effort are eschewed for tolerating failure - it's easier to blame than lead. Favoritism, nepotism, discrimination... standard SOP - some of it surprisingly overt. I encountered some of the best and worst people I've ever met in this organization. The truly great ones were as such despite their environment, not because of it. After a while it becomes harder and harder to find motivation to keep putting up with it.

Pros

Pay range is well even for starting out

Cons

Not much diversity at all, most employees are of European decent or MIXED. Wouldn't recommend this dept for people who aren't of euro or mixed race. Confidentiality goes out the window, CM's are not team players, Manager cannot lead a team effectively. Too much personal life talk within staff, makes it hard to focus on work when colleagues are busy gathering personal info about you.
