Pros

The pay is good. The inmates are grateful. You can send the inmates out to the local ER in emergencies. Most of the officers are nice.

Cons

You are limited in what you can do for your patients. This is a private prison company. They keep the costs down by limiting the care given. It is a business of housing prisoners, not a business of providing quality health care. Not a good job if it makes you nervous to be around inmates and behind bars on your shift.

Thank you for your feedback. CoreCivic adheres to and is accredited by the American Corrections Association for our correctional and medical services at all of our facilities. Quality healthcare is provided by the Health Services staff who work to take care of the patients they serve. Inmates are patients who need care provided to them in their environment.

Pros

CC Uses cutting-edge Technologies, which is good experience for resume building; many of the Teams are collaborative; interesting work and you can believe in company goals.

Cons

Director and Manager level mgmt at corporate here do not provide guidance on projects. There is a lot of turnover on data projects because new employees are thrown into the deep end and then just blamed if results are not as expected. CC really needs more hands-on project oversight. There are also behavioral and anger issues with a couple long-time ppl as well, and this is both exhausting and (sometimes) outright humiliating. They need to treat new people better.
