Pros

Generally okay place if you don't mind being a cog but if you really want to make a difference this is not the best place, too stuck on "this is how we have always done it" mentality. Decent pto accrual, does count as public service so student loan payoff opportunities if you can last that long. Decent 401k & 403b.

Cons

Not many career advancement opportunities, pay & benefits aren't great, rigid hospital schedule so not a great work/life balance, poor goal based raises, overall really stressful environment with little incentive. Will lose your position if out for medical reasons longer than FMLA allows. Too corporate, busy work annual goals on top of regular duties, nothing comes out of daily stand ups or quarterly rounding & rarely anything improving comes of them mostly a gripe fest. Overly praising for doing regular job duties and too much brown nose worshipping. Above & beyond is always expected but only for a pat on the back then it is expected. Basically a hen house; things might be better in 5-10 years once older generation has retired or full automation takes over.

Pros

-great managers -non-interpreting staff very familiar working with an interpreter -policies and expectations set for most situations -exceptionally developed department (which includes a senior director) relative to other hospitals, which often lack even a basic interpreting department

Cons

-work volume; often few breaks, definitely not enough to do anything other than work-related tasks (e.g., study for class, make a personal phone call) -inflexible schedule -work flow heavily dependent on coworker proactivity -leadership structure (managers over leads over interpreters) can result in micromanagment
