Pros

It's a new hospital, it has new equipments. I love the location since it's so close to DC and other great places.

Cons

Reading the other negative reviews, I just kept thinking for every single review 'that's exactly what I want to write!'. It's really sad what this hospital is doing to it's employees. All senior experienced nurses have left or are leaving. There is no resource nurse for the new grads. In my unit, we have a 21 year old taking leadership positions w/ no experience. You have to report to a person who will support you if you are on their circle of cool friends (lifers). My manager support unprofessional behaviors in our unit. I feel like I work with children who are there to make friends and plan their next night out to drink shots! (yes, I have to hear that all the time). The hospital seems to have 90% of nurses of age below 25. It becomes so difficult to work with so many unexperienced nurses because we are continuosly training people and as soon as they are trained and have 1 year of experience, they move on to a better hospital.

Pros

Supportive leadership that genuinely cares about employees. Management encourages professional development, trusts employees to do their jobs, and promotes a collaborative environment. I've been given opportunities to attend industry conferences, continue learning, and contribute meaningfully. The work is interesting and varied, and I've felt respected and appreciated.

Cons

Workloads can be heavy at times. Priorities can shift quickly, so flexibility and organization are important.
