I work outside of the clinical environment, and it is difficult to connect your role back to patient care. This company does not honor its mission when it comes to the employee experience, because employees are overworked, underpaid and there is an overwhelming sense of feeling undervalued.
Bureaucracy is in full form at Intermountain and NO ONE can make a decision because they are struck with decision paralysis, the directive is always given to employees "let’s have another meeting and get more people involved." This is frustrating and leads to non-progressive movement with projects or initiatives. I have worked with Intermountain for years, and know it is time to leave the organization because things will never change, and the mission and values are not honored when it comes to employees.
Overall the culture is not one I want to be part of any longer because poor leadership, low pay (I must mention a 2-3% annual increases which is insulting), zero growth or development support from leadership. Along the lines of development...if you don't manage your own path to develop yourself, you will left behind in your career. No investment will be made on your behalf either because you will be told that no funds are available to help you with development; or your manager is plain and simple to busy (managers are caught in the same catastrophic lack of work life balance) - be ready pay for all of your continuing education and find your own opportunities to learn and grow.
This organization is heavy on high level leaders, and don't provide support for the front life staff. Management is willing to sacrifice turnover, disengagement and unhappy employees at the cost of meeting their goals and getting a big bonus at the end of the year.
