      Pros

      I think they are well organized as a whole. The various web sites for benefits, paystubs and the like do make life easier (except when your password expires without warning.) There are at least moderate opportunities to advance if you are willing to relocate. Also the Paid Time Off is top notch.

      Cons

      There are several Managers, even Directors earning $100k+ and bonuses (they like to brag) who don't seem to know enough about IT to get an entry level job, but are great BS'ers which makes them good at HCA's favorite activity, conference calls. If you are a superstar in IT, don't expect to be paid a premium, as it's all about title not talent. Oh and there are no bonuses under the Manager level, not even xmas.

      A place that does NOT value employees. Where profit ranks higher than patient care at local hospitals.

      Pros

      HCA has good benefits and salaries are usually comparable to other employers

      Cons

      HCA corporate has no clue about real impact its focus on profits has on hospitals. Hospital CEOs are afraid to be candid about effects corporate mandates have on staffing levels and patient care. Administrators are afraid to tell corporate leadership that stringent staffing levels are affecting patient care. Hospital administrators try to limp alone being ineffective and telling coporate they have strategies in place to address business failures..

      HCA is too bureaucratic

      Pros

      The salary levels are very good and some of the perks they've instituted (such as the concierge for staff) are very nice.

      Cons

      The focus of the corporation is reimbursement. That being said, this is a heavy load that the staff is carrying via redundant documentation and an atmosphere that is so policy-heavy that you have to look up a policy to do almost anything. The IT program that they use (Meditech) is a real dinosaur - one step above DOS and it really turns tasks into ordeals.
