Pros

Good pay for a 4-year degree, 1.5x pay for overtime and picking up. My manager is great and tries to fight for us where and when she can.

Cons

Many decisions are made from top down, individuals and managers have little power because everything has to go through the higher-ups. Matching for your 401k takes 5 YEARS to get vested, and this is prorated based on your FTE. This alone has felt like a ransom to get me to continue to work there. Tuition reimbursement used to be excellent, but a few years ago they cut reimbursement by a very large amount, and now it's comparable to every other health care agency around.

Pros

This is a really great, hard working team with many wonderful and talented people.

Cons

Management overseeing this team is very poor as of recently. Employees are being mistreated. UW Health was once considered a respectable organization that.I was proud to work for.. Now, it has become all about the money and the metrics; not about their employees, or even their patients.
