Pros

tuition reimbursement, opportunities to advance in certain titles, cater to many cultural families, flex schedule

Cons

lack of diversity among professional staff (nurses) but cater to a variety of diverse cultures, inconsistency among management and staff, if you are not kissing up or have courage to voice your concerns without hesistation then you are a threat or trouble maker and these factors will stop you from advancing forward currently is interchanging people positions such as RNs, PCA's, HUCS and using them outside their job they are hired for (RNS should not to used as sitters at a RN rate and at the discretion of management, HUCs should not used as sitters because they are not direct care providers and lack the required skills, and PCAs should not be used as HUCs when they are paid on higher pay scales and have different responsibilities), you can be floated to other units that are consistently understaffed, management in my dept doesn't listen to your concerns and basically makes decisions based on arrogance rather than seeking staff opinon, doesn't address discrimination at hand but offers diversity training to the whole instead ( this is a big issue in my dept, its becoming overbearing), RNs who have many years of experience as an ASN can not advance if they don't have BSN. Value initiative to save money is not effective
