Not a place for Experienced Hires

Pros

-Travel bonus -Benefits - Some good people

Cons

- 90% of Huron healthcare are new graduates with little to no healthcare experience. The ones with healthcare experience, gained it only through working at Huron. As any healthcare professional will tell you, this is limited - Gossip culture: There is a lack of trust amongst employees, because everyone is trying to get ahead. Therefore, anything you say and do, will be used against you, especially during review time. - No true development: The mark of a learning organization, is to help people learn from their mistakes. Not at Huron, if you make a mistake, it will be used against you for years. It is often cloaked as "feedback" - The solutions are not vetted. People cling onto methodology, which stunts creativity. - NO respect for clinical personnel. Clinicians or people with previous management experience outside of healthcare are not valued. - If you are experienced, the only way to get ahead is to kiss a lot of butt. - They sell more work, than the manpower to complete a quality project. Due to turnover, more new people are being placed on projects. This decrease the quality of the work being produced.

Pros

My experience with HCG involved dealing with superiors who had less aptitude and talent and felt threatened by those who could truly shine with clients.

Cons

Politically charged, generally 2nd or 3rd tier talent. I worked with very few consultants who really brought value to the client. Usually it was the re-treading of old PowerPoints with a Find/Replace old client name with new client name. You will not develop yourself much here. If you're smart, aggressive about your career and know how to communicate you would be much better off elsewhere.

Good place to build your chops, management is mostly cold.

Pros

Good place to build your skills- in one area. Great loaction and facility. Great benefits. SOME management is warm and caring. There is genuine talent and some stellar people there.

Cons

Most management could care less about bottom rung employees. There are literally bullies in some departments and management won't do a thing about it. There are inappropriate/threatening/aggressive comments made by people and everyone turns a blind eye. Management is not noticing their really talented staff, nor are they doing anything to retain them.
