Pros

They promised us a increase in pay, with great benefits. And structure. Which none of that happened. The Aquired our company with false promises. They hired everyone in our private practice, and decided with no notice to lay off everyone. Told us we were welcome to apply within the company, just not at our location.

Cons

They lied, the put us through their EMR training. Had us spend hours upon hours converting our clinic over from private practice, to Franciscan. After going through their training and traveling to downtown location without compensation for our travel. Only to terminate everyone in my clinic. The provider Dr. Kim whom owned the private practice clinic (who was a amazing physican, everyone including staff and patients loved him) decided to sell to the Franciscan to make a seamless transition into EMR and the new healthcare reform. He signed a contract with them during the buy out that stated everyone must keep their position within the clinic. He decided without much notice to the staff that he had decided to go active duty in the air force, and would be shortly deploying to Korea. With that said he broke his contract with CHI. Upon doing that HR came in without notice and terminated all of us. It was vindictive and retaliation for dr. Kim breaking his provider contract. I have never been through something like this, it was a difficult situation for all. Including our clinical manager whom they hired, whom was employed for over 17 years with Dr. Kim. They gave her a management position. But again when they terminated our positions the reason they gave was "the position we gave you, was not really a position we have at chi"
