Pros

I can't deny that the work life balance is extremely convenient. Also, you do find incredibly kind and supportive colleagues that work with you, who become long time friends.

Cons

Where to begin... Growth opportunities do not exist within the department. Upper management is quick to hire from the outside and expect you to train, rather then promote from within. Everything is run off of complete favoritism, and it is obvious when the same people get promoted every time. If you are not part of the select group of "buddies" you have no chance of survival and there can be a sense of bullying. Upper management might be capable at doing their job, but they have zero understanding in proper leadership and respect. HR is joke as well, they give no support to lower staff. They are there to back up upper management ONLY. You can be extremely successful at your job with a proven track record, and they will still find a way to push you out. There is no clear distinction between job titles, and the measure of success is not the same between individuals. Lastly, the feedback I would receive from my upper management was completely inappropriate and unprofessional. It felt like a way to belittle and undermine my skills so I wouldn't feel good enough at the work I provided.

Thank you for your review as a Program Manager. At Northwell, our leaders are helping us on our quest to redefine healthcare, and without their leadership, we wouldn’t be named Forbes America's Dream Employer. We strive to offer a culture that upholds our values and mission, while also supporting the wants and needs of our patients and team members. Your comments are important to us, which is why we will share them internally.

Pros

Office setting; nice people, cafeteria

Cons

Overworked and severely underpaid, short staffed for the amount of patients they intake to the program (on the clinician side and administrative), very low pay for administrative workers, little to no real benefits (PTO is not front loaded but trickled in: 1 hour accumulated per pay period - it would take about 4 months to accumulate 1 full day of PTO. Sick time is a similar trickle system so you end up taking a lot of unpaid time until you can’t), due to that it’s impossible to not get burnt out. The union also hasn’t negotiated a good contract if these conditions exist for those at the basic level. Food in the cafeteria is not great and sometimes gives people the runs. Also it’s expensive (full price despite working for the org; they cannot even give discounts which is weird considering how much the CEO makes and how little we do). Feel abandoned and not properly compensated. Deeply exhausted.
