Pros

There are friendly people all over that work here. Some of the best nurses in the world work here.

Cons

Bad management. Lots of backstabbing. Supplies are not always there when needed. There are too many people that do nothing here and get paid for it.

Pros

The commitment to the overall mission and core value of the organization. Everybody from the lowest ranks to the senior executives are fully committed to mission...to care for the poor and vulnerable, through our compassionate service. The caring value permeates throughout the organization.

Cons

Since it is a non-profit organization, pay is not as competitive with other organizations.

Pros

Sacred Heart is one of the most stable employers in the region. There were some layoffs a few years ago, but things have really turned around and they are hiring for more new positions again. They offer good pay and solid benefits, and being such a large workplace, there is plenty of opportunity for development and advancement.

Cons

There seems to be a tolerance for mediocre and low performance, from front-line staff to middle and upper management as well. This includes physicians as well. There is a lot of pressure to be fast, with not as much effort towards quality. Mistakes and errors are covered up and forgotten, instead of dealing with them openly and transparently.
