Pros

Kaiser offered multiple opportunities to grow within the company just because of it's sheer size - they're a national company. Managers were open to hiring people from within even from different departments. The benefits were excellent - I basically was paid to see Kaiser physicians and stay within the Kaiser system. Prescription drugs were really affordable compared to other plans. I also loved the care I received from my physicians.

Cons

Compensation wasn't fair. They would bring in new people at higher salaries and wouldn't adjust the current employees. Management wasn't the best, meaning they weren't very strategic in the way they rolled things out.

Pros

To be able to practice medicine without worrying about the overhead costs ... The job is very stable, with built-in intermittent raises and guaranteed salaries (salaries are not at risk or dependent on external forces). Good predictable hours. Relatively rare on-call hours @ nights and weekends. Excellent colleagues and team work. Plenty of educational time and opportunity to enhance yourself on personal and professional levels. Nice nurses and staff to work with. Good lunches if attending meetings. Top of the line technology, including electronic medical records at your fingertips - - never need to worry about not finding the patient's lab or radiology reports ...

Cons

Sometimes there are the necessary big company politics ... you just need to know how to work around it. Just need to be flexible and avoid certain personalities...
