Pros

Providence Health & Services, Southern California operates five hospitals in the region, including three in the San Fernando Valley. Well respected large local employer. Fantastic Mission, Vision, Values. Highly respectable H.R. Department and its staff.

Cons

Although Providence is an overall great organization to work for, like all work environments they too have an area for improvement....Highly bureaucratic, antiquated top-down organizational structure that continue to dominate our workplace including this organization. The bureaucracy leaves many departments feeling fragmented and it impedes the organization from being able to adapt to chances that constantly take place in the healthcare arena; smaller physician owned specialty medical offices are much quicker to adapt and get the business leaving us open and vulnerable until the "real-time" activities/environment is acknowledged by the C-level. The individual I personally reported to was a great leader, kind person, highly talented and bright, I remain highly respectful to them.
