Pros

Comprehensive associate benefit programs. Great coworkers who are dedicated to patient care. Patients come from all over to seek care. Lots of service lines available across the system.

Cons

Facilities are in need of investment/improvement. The culture of safety is important but has many afraid of making a mistake.

Pros

Full Time opportunities, good money if you move up. Education Assistance, benefits.

Cons

Tons of politics, there's the people who have been in the door and out the door and then the ones you have to deal with are the ones who have been there "20 years, 25 years, 15 years" that have their seniority (which is looked upon highly). You have to kiss rear to get anywhere and if you don't you will be blacklisted within the company. There's also favoritism when it comes to salary ranges. One person may be making $15 sitting next to you with less experience because they "know the manager" while someone else is making $12 because they didn't know anyone. It's definitely not based on merit. Also--get better training for specific jobs, universal training (with one trainer) doesn't work for everyone, try to find a way that benefits all learning types so people aren't fired or quitting all the time (high turn over rate).
