Pros

Reputation, salary, job security and benefits. I have worked at Kaiser for a few solid years without ever feeling my job was in jeopardy because of layoffs and cutbacks.

Cons

As with everywhere else in the economy Kaiser is affected, the result downsizing and more cost effective procedures which also results in significant cultural change with our day to day duties.

Pros

Given the large size of the organization, there are many opportunities. For those who are interested in administrative work versus clinical work there are possibilities. The expectations are high. Other physicians in the group are, in general, easy to work worth. I believe the standard of care for the patient are excellent. Senior leadership is usually available when needed. There is a clear carrier path for physicians. Office locations throughout southern california are helpful if moving.

Cons

politics; this organization is huge; changes happens slowly. There is little incentive given for work beyond the norm. The patient load can be demanding for primary care.

Pros

Kaiser has great training capablility for growth. They provide many types of classes for it's employees.

Cons

Kaiser has a history of hiring from the outside instead of promoting from within. Now that there is a hiring freeze, they have employees double up on their duties so they don't have to hire people.
