Pros

As soon as I started working here, I felt much better about being a CNA. My last hospital (VM) made me feel like a worker bee. I was often talked down to and called upon to do simple tasks that anyone (especially a nurse) could perform, but because I'm a CNA, no one need be bothered with such a thing. At Swedish, you are among peers. There is a level of respect among staff here that is hard to find, you're recognized for the work you put in rather than the nature of the work you do.

Cons

We're often short staffed, at times I feel like I'm in a nursing home again. Tonight, I have 15 patients.

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.
