SSM Health reviews

They talk about the nurses as if they are nuns, praising their supposed willingness to angels of mercy with no needs of their own. The reality is that they expect you to work sometimes dangerously under-staffed and not terribly well paid. Lack of upper management support when something goes really wrong. They will punish you for a WC injury unless you do your regular job despite orders against it and without complaining, and pretend they have not asked you to do so, but that you insist. They are terrified of firing a minority staff person, so they insult the excellent minority staff by forcing them and non-minorities to work with them indefinitely, even if their performance is AWFUL or even dangerous. If you're managing this employee, it's hands-off or out YOU go.

Management in my department was based in St. Louis. The ended up hiring a inept manager in OKC. 15 of us started out as "temps" and were promised work (without benefits) until Dec. 23rd. When asked in meetings if we would be kept until then, they positively said "Yes". They ended up cutting us short (right before Christmas with children to feed at home) and then after 8 months of hard work, (and after telling us there would be "permanent positions" for us), they made us go through a lengthy and cumbersome interview process. After it was all said and done, they ended up keeping a few and hiring all brand new employees to fill the rest of our positions. Don't believe the Catholic Hype!
