Pros

Free parking, not much else.

Cons

Mission is perhaps the most disorganized place I have ever worked. Their policies and procedures are outdated, and their grasp of "evidence based practice" is limited to reading the summaries of studies and formulating policies without the benefit of critical thinking. Their staffing is a shambles, and many units have to send staff elsewhere on a daily basis. Opportunities for growth are limited unless you are a native of the area. Clics are the rule of the day, and those who attempt to get along are simply run over and abused. As for benefits, the health policy is nearly worthless. You will spend hundreds for even the most minor or injuries or illnesses. I have spent less before I became a nurse and was uninsured! Mission attempts to claim that it is a modern health system, but it is not. This is a small community hospital that has grown beyond the limited capabilities that it has.

Pros

Friendly staff for the most part, decent benefits. EKG department pretty easygoing, relatively easy to manage time. Good food in cafeteria and good information about advancing education through AB-Tech and other institutions.

Cons

Favorability shown to employees that 'clicked' with supervisor ... in my opinion this had too much to do with race and gender. Very limited opportunity for advancement in EKG department. Scheduling a constant issue, putting employees on 'swing shift' - alternating 12-hour day and night shifts.

Pros

Still carries a strong reputation in the region; still maintains a near monopoly in secondary-tertiary care for the region; expanding services in Asheville

Cons

Leadership is unjustifiably arrogant and quite disorganized in recent years - performance in recent years trying to build a hospital system and multi-specialty physician group has been disastrous; Charlotte-based Carolina Healthcare gradually picking off all the hospitals/communities that historically have supported the existence of such a large tertiary hospital in such a small city; Local competition from the much larger, better funded and better organized Carolina Healthcare Systems is imminent, and likely to impact Mission Hospitals in ways for which they are unprepared. Moving to Asheville at this time for a career with Mission Hospitals at this point in time would be a bad idea.
