Pros

1) Great camaraderie of colleagues 2) Very good physicians with excellent skills and knowledge on best treatments

Cons

With Providence St Joseph Health take-over, it has become another silo mill of being an employed physician: there are forced “quality” or “incentive” measures, upper management/C-suite doesn’t listen and have their own agendas that are usually based in profits rather than patient/physician care and local changes to practice or EMR now have to be approved through a several-months process of meetings and bureaucratic frustrations.

Pros

+The company is severely incompetent +Trauma-bonding with your co-workers will never be easier

Cons

-Toxic management culture: you'll frequently be brought into full-team meetings where the management will circle-jerk themselves, refuse to listen to team members, change random procedures, then ask why the workers want to unionize. -The company is SEVERELY incompetent: the company blows thousands of dollars on worthless things like their own in-house AI chatbot GPT clone and refuses to spend money on resources wisely while simultaneously complaining about the budget. -Abhorrently dishonest: They let me go after bringing me into a meeting to discuss "communication expectations." They then refused to allow two-party consent for recording, fired me for apparently "violating their standards of protocol", refused to allow me to stay to gather any evidence of their random firing, and refused to respond to any emails to confirm the nature of the meeting. This was ALSO the week before the management promised everyone on our team an annual raise. -Separation is a nightmare: Not only did they lie about the reason for separation before being busted by the state, but they also refuse to cash out PTO time, and HR is a nightmare to work with when confirming details for state services.
