Pros
The location is central and easy to get to. The Benefits are good and there is a clinic at the hospital that is free for employees.
Cons
I’ve worked at Methodist for a long time as an RN. During my time here, I can say that this is an okay Hospital to work for. Methodist recently started a diversity and inclusion program, but I’m afraid the the diversity isn’t seen on the executive level. The Hospital President sends out emails that are inappropriate in my opinion and sometimes have political undertones. For example, he sent an email when Steve Scalise got shot but said nothing when the chaos in Charlottesville unraveled. I think his emails need to be vetted before sending them out to further consider how his employees will receive it. During my time here, I’ve seen departments completely change. HR can’t ever keep the same staff and neither can the Benefits department. As soon as I get to know someone and trust them to help me they are gone. It makes me wonder what’s going on in there and makes me question if I can trust them with any issues I may have. I’ve heard of several instances of racism and discrimination and have witnessed a fair share for myself. My African American co-workers are treated differently and unfairly. I get away with things that they don’t get away with. I often speak up and tell management but nothing happens. The Hospital isn’t blatantly racist but there is covert racism and discrimination in their practices. If you are a person of color, proceed with caution if you decide to work here. Read through some of the other reviews and you will see that several people have similar experiences. The Hospital looks great from the outside looking in, but once you get in you will experience something completely different.
