Pros

-Good pay -Other benefits are very good except the healthcare coverage is self-insured which allows you to only go to "their" facilities unless you want to pay the difference ($$$) -Opportunities to volunteer within the community

Cons

If you have a disability don't consider working here. Creating a policy within the department to help is great, but when "management" doesn't follow it and treats the employee as if they're the hostile employee, something is wrong. When individual policies are created per employee while others in the department don't have to follow, something is wrong. Worked my butt off while "lifers" sat around, did virtually nothing, refused to follow processes and got a raise. I saw enough mistreatment of employees to last a lifetime.

Pros

There some flexibility with scheduling and they let you pick up as many shifts as you want and pretty much your own schedule.

Cons

Very poorly managed, chronically understaffed but managers are dismissive and deny it. The support from staff is inconsistent, the staff nurses are either fresh new grads or very bitter nurses who don’t want to help and expect you to handle everything by yourself as a tech. Most nurses here are PRN’s on contracts that get floated so it’s really hard to expect consistency in the staff you work with and build trusting relationships. Management will promise to train you as a unit secretary but will never follow up. They also agree to help you get opportunities for learning and growth but refuse to follow up or forget about it altogether, despite reminders. It’s not a priority. If your goal is to grow and learn more this is not the place. It’s running on fumes at 95% of the time. Very high turnover, we struggle to keep staff. They’ll call you in to pick up when they’re understaffed with no incentive or something minimal like “swag” (some gear). Very poorly compensated and you will not be appreciated for the hard work you do. Also it took 2 months for them to get me started despite numerous attempts to reach the HR, Management etc.
