Pros

Great salary and benefits Great support from co-workers.

Cons

Poor upper level management. They will not train their own nurses in another specialty. Not loyal to long time employees. The trend has been outsourcing of departments and numerous layoffs!!!! Job security for a job well done is a thing of the past at HUMC.

Pros

Great salary and benefits. MAGNET Institution.

Cons

They don't care about their employees. They pay great but they overwork you. I fear for my license and my job security. Worked here for 11 years and now is never the same as it was since the management changed. I must say, as you become more senior and get paid more, be very careful because as soon as they find something against you, they wouldn't think twice about firing you. And definitely good for their budget because they will easily replace you with a fresh graduate with of course a lot less to pay hourly. Oh and I forgot to mention, they are GREEDY. They accept all patients then if entire hospital beds are full, they will put patients on the hallways. And oftentimes, patients are transferred from ER to a hallway and guess what, a SURPRISE for them that they don't have a room and claims that they weren't informed. I wonder if other hospitals do that? If they could put patients on top of each other, believe me they would. All they care about is MONEY. A very hectic shift everytime and you have to get out on time or else, you will be subjected to a disciplinary action. But then in the meantime if you forget to chart something, you will be in trouble. Hopefully, not to the point of losing your license.

Pros

Good pay and decent benefits, great reputation in healthcare. Mostly good peers to work with. Not closely or overly micromanaged.

Cons

There are programs/incentives for 'employee satisfaction' on a corporate level but on a human level they could care less. Very bureaucratic. Managers are far removed and you end up with people who can't/haven't/don't know how to the job telling you how best to do it. When people aren't doing their job properly instead of being reprimanded, the work is pushed to someone who performs better and the underachievers continue to do less. Pay is based on job title alone and not merit or performance. Benefits/perks dwindle every year. No room for advancement for non-clinical employees- when a higher paying job become available they downgrade the title and pay so they can higher new staff at a cheaper rate. New duties are added with ZERO training for them... I could go on...
