Mount Sinai Health System reviews

- Constant fear of layoffs as new management is investing heavily in outsourcing which has already eliminated many IT jobs - New "cloud first" initiative to move as much as possible into the cloud is being driven by an outsourcing company who will then support it afterwards as well, opening the door for management to eliminate even more IT employees once the project is completed. The small amount of internal cloud support employees are being hired from the outside rather internally - No raises for years except for certain individuals/managers that do get bonuses and "premium pay" - The extremely rare cost of living raises are all offset by the constantly rising cost of benefits (despite working for a hospital), which keeps you in the hole overall - Clueless upper management that changes direction on an almost daily basis and does everything around the singular goal of saving money - No investment being made in current employees unless you're in management or a friend of someone in management - No growth opportunities

The Mount Sinai Hospital system has a very inflated sense of importance and reputation (notice their aggressive branding all over NYC) and they have a culture of working their staff to the bone and expecting you to be grateful for being a part of it all. In my program our workload was regularly increased, everyone on the front lines worked overtime without pay, and if we stood up for ourselves we were told explicitly that we are replaceable. Management is unsupportive, if present at all, and really unprofessional and petty (and skews white and male, in my experience). They seem to only care about the bottom line - money - and not about patient care - that's your problem! I know social workers, nurses, and supervisors at several programs and everyone hates their job but stays for the pay/benefits. There are numerous excellent workers at these hospitals, but they all get burnt out in the toxic environment and stop caring. I wouldn't come here if my arm fell off.
