Pros
I can't speak for the other sites, but at my emergency department, the people I worked with were great! The chief scribe always tried their best to help us out with schedule accommodations, support us with our problems, and more. They definitely went above and beyond their job description. The physicians were wonderful for the most part, and they were willing to guide us and help us do our jobs better. The nurses, techs, other scribes, and other employees were pleasant, as well. The experience I gained in the emergency department was priceless; I experienced things in there that I could never experience elsewhere.
Cons
Pay is abysmal, especially considering what is required of the scribes. There are not really chances for formal breaks either. There is also not a great system in the event that you need to call in sick.
