PeaceHealth reviews

Here we go. When you walk in the building you will notice something odd. There is not ONE wheelchair, walker, service animal, blindness cane... There are NO disabled people. Well, I am disabled. HR treated me like a pariah. When I wrote my sixth email to HR asking for the chair and mat my doctor had recommended, I put a sentence in bold. This email was put on my evaluation as a "scathing email" and as "poor behavior." From that point on, I was treated differently. It was a witch hunt to build a file of "errors" in my work. Long story short, they got rid of their ADA problem and fired me for "poor performance." (I have a 25-year career with positive references and client satisfaction.) The building is not ADA-compliant, they do not hire people with disabilities, and I hope they get caught and held accountable for this, as it contradicts them as a faith-based healthcare organization. The people reading this know who they are. I hope the PeaceHealth EEOC department investigates them.

Mid to upper management is predominately male. Lower employees feel unappreciated and any concerns are turned back on employee and no help is offered. Supervisors, leads, and managers speak down to lower employees and make them feel insignificant and stupid. Subtle threats, such as, 'Is this concern worth losing your job over?' Poor communication. Feels like employees are disposable. If you want to work less, your only option is to quit. No cutting back hours or call. It's all or nothing. Unfortunately it is the only hospital in the Bellingham area, so no alternatives. Thanks to the union the pay is decent, but it depends on how much do you need to make to overlook the disrespect and sexism that is so rampant in this organization? Different expectations for different genders in same role.
