Pros

The pay is fair at this hospital compared to other places I have worked.

Cons

Favoritism with hiring relatives or friends to replace long term workers, racism, no voice in decisions and leaders who make decisions that go unchecked by Vice Presidents. The CEO has no clue. Too many good employees find jobs elsewhere or are driven out of the hospital, most recently in HR and IT. The hospital has a program they call Just Culture but this is an Unjust Culture. This hospital has over 20 Vice Presidents (and adding more) but eliminates the jobs of lower payed employees everyday. Most employees are unhappy and are looking for jobs elsewhere. Those that stay, stay for one reason, the children. The only way things will change at this hospital is for the senior leaders to become aware of the injustices done to some of its best employees and do something about it. Knowing this is not going to happen, the next best thing for this hospital would be to elect a Union.

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
