Pros

Opportunities, benefits, culture.... In all, I liked working here. I gained amazing experience, and met some of the most amazing people.

Cons

As providence grows, their culture is changing. Although they still tout the mission and core values, It doesn't feel like they believe in them within their employee base like they did when I started. When I started, there was a focus on work-life balance, and on treating all employees with as much love, care, and compassion as we do to the patients. However, as Providence has grown and moved further and further from the founding Sisters, they are losing that compassion for their employees.

Pros

Very good benefits, excellent pay, a lot of great people do work at providence. Good work, life balance for some, depending on the department, for others a lot of overtime and weekend work.

Cons

There is confusion in management, a tremendous amount of pressure to meet unrealistic goals. This is translated into a tremendous amount of pressure on admin support, impossible to achieve agreement with calendar management. 30 to over 50 meetings per director per week is the norm. in addition to conference call and room scheduling, as well as travel that is constantly changing at the whim of upper management..

Pros

Always hiring, everything is on fire, toxic work place, bullying, zero interest in employee attrition, can become a Supervisor in 2 weeks (you'll be among the most experienced there), so much turnover no need to remember anyones name, they onboard so many people that its swift, high patient acuity, not a liveable wage so many positions available!

Cons

Computers are worn out, their cheap version of Epic doesn't work for Providers/non-Providers (i.e., the Provider needs to physically find and ask any other person (CNA, RN, MA) to close out of that patient's chart before any change can be made to the patient's chart) it's a wonder anything gets accomplished by the time the Provider waddles back to their chair EPIC has logged out and someone somewhere certainly has logged into that patient's chart - repeat all day every day, Residents get harassed to rationalize quitting as they are sh*t on for 110 hours per week; failed marriages/quit medicine/burnout/whatever. But hey these quarterly earnings went up 0.3%! I loved it because the senselessness was like being on a sitcom.
