Pros

Commitment to the mission to care for the poor. Most staff are there to make a difference with compassionate care. The motto of "Know me, care for me, ease my way" is important and supported by management. Good place for older IT staff looking for job security in an institutional organization supporting legacy EMR systems.

Cons

Very fractured management across regions and affiliates. Poor morale and high turnover. Very poor IT services and Healthcare Intelligence management focusing more on politics and process hoops than delivering solutions. Very vendor-oriented with mostly outside solutions from consulting firms. Terrible environment for internal staff with technical or development experience.

Pros

(This is for Providence St Vincent Medical Center in PDX) - staffing ratios - break nurses - ONA union - coworkers on my unit are very helpful and kind (can’t speak for every unit though)

Cons

- upper management hates the nursing union - we are short on many supplies on weekend night shifts - crappy insurance - my unit’s manager is almost never there, they’re always on vacation or working remote. This makes our manager very out of touch with the unit’s needs
