Pros

1. They're willing to work with your schedule and make adjustments if need be. 2. The staff are friendly and welcoming. 3. Yearly handwashing and patient review bonuses. 4. On most floors, you will only work 36 hours a week and if want 40 hours you can always pick up shifts! 5. If you are religious, there are chaplins who come to the unit to pray over everyone weekly. 6. Parking is free! (with this location being in the medical center, this is huge!) 7. Orientation is one week-long, you learn a lot. 8. Free courses you can take to elevate you and introduce you to new career opportunities. 9. Tuition reimbursement after 6 months of employment.

Cons

1. They aren't willing to negotiate your starting pay salary despite creditials. 2. If your schedule says 7A-7P, you have to arrive at 6:45A in order to be considered on time. Same if work 7P-7A or 3P-11P... 3. Not many food options after 10 PM if you work the night shift.

Pros

The transition to Workday is a welcome modernization that brings the organization more in line with other large health systems.

Cons

the work-life balance for Advanced Practice Providers (APPs) needs significant improvement. The criteria for earning administrative time place unrealistic expectations on APPs, making it difficult to achieve a sustainable workload. It is especially discouraging to work alongside physicians who have more attainable criteria for protected administrative time, creating a sense of inequity that negatively impacts morale. Additionally, there is little flexibility in scheduling. Offering 0.8 or 0.6 FTE positions would help retain experienced APPs who want to continue providing high-quality patient care while maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Without these options, many APPs are left choosing between full-time burnout and leaving the organization altogether. the work-life balance for Advanced Practice Providers (APPs) needs significant improvement.
