      Pros

      -Great Benefits and PTO offering

      Cons

      -Favoritism runs rampant @ OU Children's Hospital -People are prompted based on friends with bosses regardless of any experience history -Bosses hire individuals who have zero history in the field or experience at higher payrate (i.e. food clerk at a higher pay then coder) -When issues are brought up, they go into a black hole and then the higher ups pretend it never happened. -If you ask for a higher rate, they will throw 10x more work at you for $0.10 increase -If you ask for time off, even for surgery or pregnancy, they question everything about it -Too many cons to list

      Pros

      Workplace Culture and Team Collaboration: Many employees appreciate the supportive, family-like atmosphere and strong teamwork within their teams and across departments. They value the camaraderie, inclusivity, and mutual respect that foster a positive work environment focused on patient care. Meaningful Work and Patient Impact: Employees find motivation and satisfaction in knowing their work directly or indirectly improves patient care and community health. This sense of purpose is a significant driver of engagement.

      Cons

      Degree Requirements and Career Advancement: Many employees express concern that strict degree requirements, especially for IT roles, hinder career progression and demoralize experienced staff without degrees. There is a strong preference for recognizing equivalent experience or certifications in lieu of formal degrees to promote internal mobility and retain talent.
