      Pros

      The one and only good thing about Health First is self scheduling for RNs who work 3 12-hour shifts a week. You can choose the days you want to work and are usually granted what you request, except for required weekends and holidays.

      Cons

      Literally everything else. Terrible turn over with employees, staff literally, actually "hate" working there (we all talk to each other so I know). Constantly understaffed, overworked, and low morale. You are overworked to utter misery. I felt like a slave. The whole time I worked here I was denied a merit increase. They will deny you a raise for any reason such as; you got your flu shot 1 day late, you did your N95 fit test 1 day late, you submitted your online learning 1 day late, you submitted any required module 1 day late, and more. If you clock in 1 minute late or 1 minute early, you get a point and at 10 points you are fired! If you are wrongly given a point by mistake and do not tell your manager to correct it within a certain amount of time, the point stays on your record! This place HATES their employees! They don't care about you, they care about profits and warm bodies filling a position. Undoubtedly the WORST employer I have EVER worked for. Even Worsthoff is better and I worked there too!

      Pros

      Friendly employees. Coworkers make everyone fell welcome and are there to help each other out. The pay was great. There was opportunities to grow and move up in the company. Fair competitive wages. They provide outside technical training to improve their employees skillsets. They have a budget for ongoing training. They maintain a professional atmosphere.

      Cons

      There was a lot of turnover in the mid and upper management. In the time I was there I had 5 different managers 3 different directors and 3 different CIOs. This made it difficult to understand what direction to follow and meet expectations. Once you figured out what the manager expects of you and the way they like things done, you had a new manager with completely different ideas and expectations. The performance metrics were consistently changing and there was no clear communication of what the new metrics were.
