Pros

Very beautiful hospitals, new equipment, plenty of job opportunities, tuition advancement and corporate deduction on tuition.

Cons

Short staffed, RN's expected to care for 6-7 patients on a daylight shift or 7-10 patients on the night shift. Nurses and support staff are unhappy which makes for a difficult working environment. Patients with very high acuity on understaffed medical floors, ICU RN's expected to care for 3 critically ill patients.
