Pros

Colleagues are smart, engaged, and care about their jobs.

Cons

You do not get paid for holidays--you are forced to take holidays offs but must use PTO. Sick, holiday, and vacation days are all wrapped up into PTO, which is only 22 days your first year. You receive merit-based pay increases which only end of being about 3 percent, so basically a cost-of-living increase. There is no negotiation on salary upon hire unless you're coming in at the director level.

Pros

High Acuity patients Maintain Skillset Job security

Cons

Too many patients in a day and not enough time to spend with them. Minimal admin time to manage InBasket and patient needs. Frequently need to juggle a full and complex patient schedule with urgent test results and care coordination. Have to use personal PTO to cover holidays and any time the clinic is closed due to circumstances outside of our control. (weather, power outages, etc) Annual performance Bonuses are now being determined by online patient feedback scores.
