Pros

Hours Monday through Friday 9 A.M. - 5 P.M. Supportive to me as a new mom, and immediate insurance were nice. Not a huge turn-over rate, as compared to most areas with Mercy with the June Layoffs. Certification increases pay.

Cons

Mandatory Mercy Scrubs, but they are impossible to obtain, Catty environment, little instruction about how to obtain certifications for pay raises, and little HR support. Limited growth potential or signs to promote from within. Base pay is advertised around $19/hour, but its lower than most ($17/hr), and often struggle financially until they can find their way into a certification. Support to get to certification is extremely limited.
