Pros

-make a lot of money -don’t work more than 40 hours - retirement is good if 20 plus years with company

Cons

-company culture is terrible -people are not team players because of ranking system -processes and levels of management are excessive -no technical help in the same time zone to help with anything in a timely manner. Techs, IT, accounting, etc. -will get passed on for promotion in favor of 25 year old with little skills who can boost diversity and inclusion or is the best “yes” man around.

Pros

Great place to work, with a strong focus on safety, teamwork, and innovation. You get to collaborate with experienced teams, tackle real operational challenges, and grow your skills. The company also offers good benefits, career development opportunities, and a balanced roster schedule, making it a rewarding and supportive work environment.

Cons

Performance ranking system can be tough because it ranks employees against each other rather than on individual merit. It sometimes feels unclear and stressful, with job security, bonuses, and promotions tied to where you stand. While it rewards top performers, it can create unnecessary pressure and workplace politics.

Pros

Pay, benefits, and the campus is nice if you like how hospitals feel and no privacy.

Cons

If you're a creative professional looking for a supportive and collaborative workplace, look elsewhere. This company fosters a fear-based work culture through its toxic ranking system, which pits employees against one another, including against their own managers. There’s a reason why performance assessments are jokingly referred to as “The Hunger Games” among employees. Leadership thrives on ambiguity, and many managers will either neglect you entirely, refuse to delegate meaningful work, or actively sabotage you by speaking out of both sides of their mouth. Accountability is nonexistent, and favoritism runs rampant. That said, having this company on your resume may open doors elsewhere—but the toll it takes on your well-being may not be worth it. Proceed with caution.
