Business Outlook
Pros
Northwestern’s Cancer Center seems to really value staff professional development. They’re big into meetings and trainings.
Cons
Staff retention is very poor. People leave after 3 months, 6 months, or many under a year. Very few people have been here more than a couple years. The management, while well structured compared to other universities, is very poorly executed, and no one ever seems to know what they’re doing. There are huge gaps when you start because people just don’t do their work, and at a large organization, you can never as one person work enough to fix things that many people have neglected for years. You’re a number not a person here, and everyone just does enough to get by, not actually thrive or succeed.
