Pros

Stable babies 1:2 ratio They give you free scrubs

Cons

Escalation to structured conversations instead of real-time coaching. No clear guidance. Outdated practices (e.g., drawing caffeine levels weekly if a baby is on caffeine, regardless of dose), and many more. Support is minimal at best (I received one shift of orientation when I was supposed to have at least 3–6). Textbook nurse bullies. Textbook profit over patient safety. Textbook fly-by management style. Nurses will complain if you have too many blankets or not enough. Unsafe narcotic wasting and counting system (they do it by hand on a spreadsheet , no joke). Low retention rate, especially for a NICU. In the span of eight months, 6–7 people quit. Management is performative and will literally lie to you.
