      Great institution. However, removed from urban amenities and poor pay.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Fully integrated multispecialty medical group with mature EMR (EPIC). - Collaborating and communicating with colleagues is very easy. - Ability to provide gold standard of care to patients. - Capable and friendly colleagues. - Generous PTO and CME allowance. - Benefits from day 1. - Good retirement plan. - Ample opportunities for participating in committees, quality improvement projects, research and teaching. - Medical management is mostly receptive to ideas related to improving things around. - No traffic. - Patients are mostly respectful to healthcare workers in comparison to most cities.

      Cons

      - Low salary for some physicians (they were unable to afford to pay me the 10th percentile for my specialty) - Minimal raises. - Space is a premium for some departments. I did not have an office. - Removed from urban amenities (3 hours away from a real city) - Mediocre public schools with the exception of Lewisburg school district. No good private school alternatives. - Long commuting for outreach clinics for some specialties (20-90 miles)

      lots of patients

      Staff physician (surgical specialist)

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good, standard benefits package, mature electronic medical record system

      Cons

      located in a small town and far from a major city or airport, too many patients squeezed into short appointments; detrimental since many patients come to Geisinger for complex medical conditions, or because they have had complications at other institutions, or have been dissatisfied with outside providers

      Pros

      Work Hours Benefits (OK not great but better than other places) CoWorkers OT (but a few get to do it from home cause their favorites and the rest are told "we" dont do that)

      Cons

      Treated unfairly - demoralized - humiliated at times in front of co-workers Always know the negative Very rarely a positive Job Advancement - job already has someone in mind when posted Management -there is no open door policy only slamming doors from the management Dont hire managment people with knowledge - just friends of the hiring manager- employees know more If you dont vacation or drink with the boss - your treated unfairly Rules only apply to some while others get special treatment-some get to work from home while others are told that doesnt happen Low morale - knit picking on stuff that doesnt matter, but when you need help or an answer you will get your retirement first before knowing. Favoristism at its finest Made up rules as they go along to lower the morale even further
