Friendly co-workers, but poor management and high turnover

Revenue integrity

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Friendly co-workers, ample PTO, pay is fair after several adjustments over the last few years.

Cons

For an entity that shares its name with a school, they do not invest much in education, unfortunately. Inconsistent, poorly-trained managers hiring friends and family, very high turnover. In 6 years, I never once worked on a fully-staffed team.

Great pay and learning opportunities, but steep learning curve

Trauma physician assistant

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Competitive pay and benefits package for an APP role in trauma — OU Health offers solid compensation compared to similar academic medical center positions Incredible learning environment; exposure to high-acuity trauma cases accelerates clinical growth faster than most APP positions Working within a large academic health system means access to resources, specialists, and cutting-edge protocols that smaller centers can't offer Great opportunity to build a strong trauma-specific skill set that opens doors for career advancement

Cons

The steep learning curve can feel overwhelming early on — the volume and complexity of cases demands you hit the ground running
