Nurses viewed as mindless minions

Pros

Can't think of one--it's sad.

Cons

As an organization treats nursing professions under the model of better seen but not heard.

Pros

Pay was okay, I guess.

Cons

The training lasted maybe 2 weeks at most, and with so many medications to master it was unrealistic and downright cruel to claim they provided adequate time to assess competency of an employee, while then discharging that same employee for putting the tubing around the bag so it wouldn’t get tangled. Yes, that is literally at the top of my discharge report - and if you think that is the dumbest thing you’ve ever heard, it only goes downhill from there. The management was in a different part of the building half the time, and when they did show up it was obvious they haven’t set foot in a clean room for months, if ever. They didn’t even know how to explain why the issues listed (each happened once and was immediately corrected, for the record) were unresolvable - the errors happened because of the terribly short time in which I was actually trained! You can’t set someone loose and expect that they will innately know all the small details about where you arbitrarily prefer that the tubing lays in the tote. I have no words to describe the way in which I was discharged and I think it was not only unfair, but it was a mistake to the establishment - I have experience that far outweighs the tiny details that needed refining, and I’m sorry that the management couldn’t seem to find value in my skillsets. If you have prior experience, hide it because they’ll eat you alive.

Very flexible scheduling, evening shifts start at 4:30pm after classes. Well paying

Cons

Boring repetitive work. No room for growth if looking long term.
