Pros

1. Decent work schedules. 2. Able to work independently and learn about different aspects of the Supply Chain other than shipping and receiving. 3. Very much an active job, not a desk job. 4. Medical Benefits were incredible, the free zoo and aquarium visit when set up, Nursing day with the food was excellent. 5. Cafeteria was excellent and delicious, not what you expect in a cafeteria, with various dishes from different cultures. 6. You have some management that takes the time to listen to you and help you in your career but it's very few.

Cons

1. The hospital management only cares about its medical staff. You, as an employee, can easily replace you, and they make this clear in hidden messages. It has a lot of double standards on what you can do as a Support Services verse what nursing can do. 2. There is no room for growth in the place. Do not let them tell you that there is because that is a bald-faced lie. A Logistics Associate that doesn't fall under Supply Chain is usually under nursing, and there is no Logisitcs Associate Lead. They make it comfortable for you to grow or make changes along the way. The only way to become a leader is death, retirement, or a new building under Supply Chain. But be careful because even then, the person in charge of the project may have their eyes set on a candidate long before the post is created. 3. Inclusion and Diversity.- After the George Floyd incident, many changes regarding promotions, job changes, and progression were to happen. It was just talking. In this place, Nurses control every aspect of the work environment from Environmental to technology. So for these rapid changes to happen, it must be implemented with Nursing weeding out all of the bad leadership, all of the hostility in the facility, and also from the top down. But they look at the bottom up. If you are in a career or job for more than two years and want change then go to another company because the HR department will give you every reason why you do not qualify. The tension in the air is felt all around in the hospital a division between Medical Staff and everyone else.

Pros

A lot of people to work with and a great amount of exposure to different in-house counsel areas. If you are proactive, there are plenty of people willing to try and meet with you and explain things, though their time is limited. If you can pick at their brains, the Attorneys of the smartest and most hard-working individuals you'll meet. They have some fun events and team-bonding,

Cons

Lack of diversity in interns, which make fit and experience difficult. Even upon meeting diverse staff and people, there always seems to be a barrier and front. Attorneys generally have little time to teach you, but they do their best. Compensation is lackluster, but benefits and events are fun. Sometimes work can lag, and you must be proactive in seeking it out for yourself.
