Pale shadow of former best-place-to-work

Pros

Kindred, during the years 2005-2015 about..was THE place to work at.I was fortunate to experiecne those years. The benefits were good,culture was awesome, location like an art museum to go into.If you wer ein technology they trained you on latest/greatest stuff, brought any hardware or software to keep up with the market. People liked their work,supported each other and worked as teams.In short, it will be on top of the list of the best places i've ever worked at.

Cons

Closer to 2012-2013, they started to yank benefits. There was no 401k,raises were barely noticeable(sometimes you got none), passion for technology tanked with more outsourcing and crappy vendor products, people started to work from home a lot (a benefit one would say but did great damage to team spirit and culture). It is a pale shadow of its former days, very sad to see.

Beware

Pros

Great pay, bonuses, great co-workers. Teamwork not bad... Employees really do care about their patients. I have been an ICU nurse for 6 years... Have been touched long term by more patients here than ever before. Looked forward to them each and every day.

Cons

Management. Unfortunately, everything is a business now days - us nurses are just a just a number. They tell you that you are their "ROCKSTAR" and then fire you the next day without ANY regard. I was to receive a rather large bonus for my anniversary per say. They adjusted my clock in dates and times in kronos two days before my anniversary so they would not have to pay what was promised.... Even though i clocked in to work past my anniversary date. Sheisty. You think they are soooo awesome at first. I absolutely loved my job of which i lost due to being hoslitalized. I trusted them. I LOVED it. They burnt me. Badly. I am a single mother. Think about it. Goes to show you can not trust anyone anymore. Whatever happened to just taking care of the patient??????.....
