Pros

good vision and forecasting for company health and future

Cons

Ever since the implementation of Magnet and Kaizen process improvement it has put a lot of focus on forced improvement, rather than employee well-being and patient well being. Improvement in cost savings is the #1 focus, not employee satisfaction.
