Pros

The people I work with are genuinely good people. As an organization, it has an amazing reputation throughout the state, and they have a pretty decent benefits package.

Cons

Management can be two faced and cutthroat. They preach about hiring from within, but heavily rely on external candidates.

Has great potential but management is holding the tech teams back.

Pros

The work was quite easy and the atmosphere was laid back. The company has potential for growth, albeit slow, for those that work hard. Great location for the IT group to work with a nice new area.

Cons

The problem with the laid back atmosphere is that the overall system health was always an issue and the managers in charge of the systems had no clue as to what the problems were and how to track or monitor them. The help-desk is useless and is probably one of the biggest issues there. (Just ask any employee. They call it "The Helpless Desk".) The NOC needs leadership not some director type that never goes to visit the department. The most senior employees were always chosen over the more experienced folks with leadership quality. Management is definitely an issue there. Lets not forget about the below average salary's they pay for new employees and promoted individuals. The below the cost of living increases in pay are the worst.

Pros

the job is stable, doctors are great

Cons

The appointment desk has to do everything and has had a high turn over rate (30 in 1 year) what's worst is that you have management who don't know anything and is doesn't support their employees.
