Pros

Most of the staff is nice. Pay is usually on time. The building is still standing. It is easy to spot from the highway. That’s all I have.

Cons

“Good ol boy” network is law. There is no advancement unless you are friends with the person in charge of your advancement or a friend of theirs. Outdated ideas and practices are in full usage and recommending anything different will get you ostracized. Morale is extremely low due to heavy assignments, being purposely understaffed, and no appreciation from management. Very high turnover rate.

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback. All leaders at Methodist Health System are called to live our organization’s Mission, Vision, and Values in the workplace, not only when it comes to our patients but also to our employees. We are proud of being recognized as one of the “150 Great Places to Work in Healthcare” by Becker’s Hospital Review eight years in a row. That said, sometimes we fall short, and what you describe does not reflect how much we value the hard work of our therapists and nurses. We are listening, and we want to learn more about what you have experienced. If you’d like to discuss the issues you have in more detail and with confidentiality, please email us hrcareer@mhd.com.

Pros

The nurses and physicians are good, caring people and they love their patients. There are many good people at Methodist Health System.

Cons

If you're offered a job in administration - run. The CIO will target you for character assassination and harassment if she sees you as a threat. Ask the CMO. The closer you office to her, the harder it is to do your work without the interruption of her loudly dragging the names of your colleagues through the mud. She's in and out of offices trying to churn up trouble. She has no problem with lying to protect herself and has been known to read staff emails. She got a few meaningless awards and seems to have the wool pulled over administration's eyes. She exaggerates her experience and training just look at the website where is says she "pursued" postgraduate studies in management information systems at George Washington University. Yoda says, "There is no try, only do." Patient Safety is in trouble. The CIO is responsible for the IT system nurses pull discharge instructions from. It has dangerously inaccurate information, that has been given to patients in the past. Terrifying this is what critically ill patients can be sent home with. She refuses to fix it because the new Epic system will solve the problem in a year or more, and she doesn't want to spend the time or money. Maybe she just hopes no one will die because of her decision.

Pros

1. Short commute 2. Easier to see a doctor or get healthcare while working at the hospital.

Cons

1. Management 2. No way to move up within the company 3. Pay-Compensation is horrible and they review process for a percentage of a raise a year is insanity. Giving someone fifty cents a year extra is ridiculous. 4. Fellow employees- this place is like High School all over agin
