Pros

- Good health benefits - Descent location (Telestar) - Great leadership training

Cons

I was with Inova for 6 years and the latter part of my career there, I was promoted to PFS Supervisor; however, I had the absolute worst Director who was unsupportive, lacked consistent leadership abilities, and made the front line supervisors look like idiots mainly because she did not have our backs. The sad part is the the Sr. Director never saw any of this. She had rose colored glasses on to what was going on in the department. I could not handle one more day working with a director who acted so bipolar.... one day supervisors were getting praised for a job well done and the next, we were getting our heads chewed off for one reason or another. It was NOT a stable environment to be in. The AR staff could see the stress we were under and it really played an impact on them because of the high turnover rate. I wish the Sr. Director would have been more open to seeing what was going on and taken her head out of the Director's butt for one second and maybe she would have noticed how poorly her management team was and still is being treated so poorly by the Director she just absolutely adores. Lastly, the hours we were expected to work (60+ in one week) were absolutely insane! That would drive anyone to the asylum!

Pros

The only reason I have continued to work at Fairfax is because my colleagues are great people.

Cons

Poor organizational structure. Definitely a bureaucratic institution specifically with their Bed Management/Operations Center, a unit where beds are assigned in an inefficient process and patient's suffer needlessly because of ineptitude. It worked more efficienctly when bed assignments were made with the unit charge nurse. This organization re-structures every 2-3 years only to cause upheaval and to thin management. However, upper management and C levels continue to increase positions. Upper management continues to focus on short-term financial goals and not the long-term. This makes for a hostile environment and one where problems are not addressed based upon what will work over an extended period. Treats staff poorly. If someone disagrees with a manager/physician regarding an issue, the person who complained is treated poorly. The organization routinely aligns with physicians regardless of the safety issue.
