Pros
The children are amazing. It feels wonderful to be able to care for kids going through a rough time. I enjoyed holding babies, and meeting different children. The nurses are often very nice and caring people, and fun to work with. There are a few bad apples here and there, but most of the nurses are nice.
Cons
Some nurses and CSA's are the picky type who overreact to small things- with a negative and judgmental attitude. For example, if you accidentally wear a tight scrub top- maybe you put on some weight, then they would report that and it ends up on your record. The management is often picky and looks for things that people are doing wrong- it can be a stressful environment to work because of this. There is more of a focus on rules and details then supporting employee's. I actually had to quit because they were not willing to let me go become a casual worker, and my school load was over whelming in my last semester at school. I ended up going through a year and a half of really difficult job searching/underemployment/depression because I didn't have the support I needed when I requested flexible hours. Some favored employee's will probably report they had a different experience. I was not in nursing school so I think, I was less valued- they knew I would leave eventually. The kids are such a positive that despite the negativity from management, I give this place 3 stars.
