Pros

Everyone is passionate about helping sick or injured children. The nice new building is great if you actually work in that one.

Cons

Overworked, underpaid, have had years without raises. There's no transparency and if you aren't in a position of power, you are pretty much just a workhorse. Technology is way behind, no EHR, everyone works in a silo and employee satisfaction is lower than average. Although the new building is pretty, it's not child-friendly. Honestly have never worked with more petty people in my life.

Pros

The culture here is truly exceptional. From day one, I’ve felt supported, encouraged and set up for success. It’s been a genuine joy coming to work each day. What stands out most is how approachable and invested everyone is at every level, including the CEO. They take the time to answer questions and offer guidance. Coming from an academic background into a completely new environment and I’ve really appreciated the patience and understanding from my colleagues as I tackle this brand new adventure. It’s a welcoming, collaborative place where you feel valued, and I’m grateful to be part of the team.

Cons

Things move quickly, which can be challenging at first, but it keeps the work engaging and creates lots of opportunities to learn and grow.

Guaranteed hours. Friendly co-workers. Pay is decent if you know you're worth.

Cons

No career support for experienced nurses looking to pivot or transition to a different role. Raises were not given due to Medicaid cuts.
