Pros

Hard to find a reason to want to work here. Look elsewhere! Previous management team and organizational culture was significantly better. The pay was low but other factors made it a great place to work for. Now things have changed and it has become the opposite and it’s only getting worse.

Cons

Incompetent leadership. They are currently cutting fringe benefits across the board and using the excuse of poor financial performance to justify take aways, yet they are paying ridiculous management bonuses and salaries. Only the frontline employees suffer. I worked in HR so I saw this information first hand. Brown-nosing is rewarded rather than actual merit. There’s a reason why turnover was high and it is only increasing. The competent employees are voluntarily jumping ship for a reason. Low work life balance, subpar pay, incompetent management, reduction in benefits, waves of layoffs, lack of transparency, unwillingness to adapt and listen to concerns…

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.

Pros

Friendly co-workers, ample PTO, pay is fair after several adjustments over the last few years.

Cons

For an entity that shares its name with a school, they do not invest much in education, unfortunately. Inconsistent, poorly-trained managers hiring friends and family, very high turnover. In 6 years, I never once worked on a fully-staffed team.
