Pros

It is nice to be at a well known hospital, medical care is excellent

Cons

Not the best pay in the area - feels as if they do not care about their employees, yet we are the ones keeping them afloat. Benefits are lacking.

Pros

The majority of the other nurses were great. Helpful and willing to teach a new grad. Lots of support staff - at other hospitals it is typical for it to just be the L&D nurse with the physician at a delivery. Here you have a nurse for the baby and a nursing assistant.

Cons

The pay is terrible, hardly livable. The Manager while I worked there (I believe she is no longer there, so this may be irrelevant) was absolutely awful. She preached patient safety but scolded a new grad new when she raised concerns about an unsafe assignment. I witnessed her publicly degrate one specific nurse multiple times. When I put in my 2 week notice, she threatened me saying she wouldn't give new employers a good recommendation of me because I didn't give her 6 shifts of notice, even though I gave 2 calendar weeks which was the policy.
