Pros

The culture is incredibly welcoming and I feel supported by my support and charge nurses every shift!

Cons

I wish there were more of an incentive to pick up extra shifts. Our unit is regularly short staffed, but time and a half is not enough to make the staff here want to work extra. I have worked at hospitals that offer a $30 premium on top of time and a half which was incentive enough for staff to pick up. I also think double time would be sufficient for staff.

Pros

Front line staff genuinely care and are committed to the organization, even though it has changed dramatically for the worse.

Cons

Leadership under new CEO (Longhurst) has quickly become toxic. Long time employees and leaders are exiting quickly. Return to office mandate is going into effect in October 2026 and has caused massive upheaval and unproductive work for months as employees seek answers and get none. This comes after years of successive waves of layoffs and financial struggles that have damaged trust in executive leadership and the board. SCH used to care about mission and now it cares about keeping up with tech company trends and petting CEO’s ego.
