Pros
The benefits are decent
It's a large organization, so there may be many opportunities
Cons
They put on a facade by applying for all the awards in the world. They tout being an amazing workplace with an exceptional culture, but the individual team members don't Truly feel that. Team members are always wearing multiple hats and doing the work of 3-5 people.
HR promotes GROW conversations, but department leadership puts you down when you advocate for yourself and work toward promotions
Goalposts are always moving. They'll promise you promotions, salary increases, etc., give you false hope, and then pull the rug under you and make you feel completely dissatisfied and like a horrible person for wanting more.
They ask you to give them high ratings on the annual employer Perceptyx survey. If you don't, you suffer the consequences. They'll put together an action plan that leads to work falling on your lap to improve things rather than having leadership take accountability and implement positive change. In fact, rather than trying to implement positive change, they will give you dozens of reasons why we should accept the status quo and why there's nothing wrong with how they're operating.
They are always in a budget deficit. You'll never get help.
They are afraid to go against the grain and be innovative.
They always ask what the other health systems are doing, but won't do more
Unless you're a physician or nurse, you are not treated well at Northwell
