Pros

Scheduling is nice for APPs. There is a new APP union that is currently negotiating a collective bargaining agreement.

Cons

I would avoid working here for at least the next few years. There's an ongoing merger with Legacy Health. Additionally, they are considering laying off over 500 employees due to "costs outpacing revenue" despite the 1.2 billion dollars in profits reported last year. They also have a documented history of sexual discrimination, harassment and retaliation within the organization that has recently come to light despite the institution attempting to cover it up. They also pay the nurses more than APPs after the nurses negotiated a new contract this past fiscal year.

When you get settled in the right department they will fight for you. Good benefits, decent pay, lots of unionization.

Upward growth is really slow

Pros

Outstanding mission-driven organization with exceptionally talented, collaborative colleagues. I had the opportunity to work on cutting-edge ophthalmology clinical trials with multidisciplinary teams who genuinely cared about advancing patient care. The work was intellectually stimulating, there were many opportunities to learn, and I appreciated the culture of scientific curiosity and collaboration within the Casey Eye Institute.

Cons

Like many academic medical centers, organizational priorities can shift quickly with changes in funding. Decision-making can be slow, communication during organizational changes could be improved, and career advancement opportunities may be limited outside of traditional academic pathways. Funding uncertainty can affect long-term job stability for research staff.
