Pros
It's a job. There is great job security here because other companies in the area pay better and offer better benefit packages. When I was trained I was told specifically to "do just enough to keep supervisors off of your back, but don't do enough to make anybody else look bad"...
Cons
Wages are less than competitive with other orginizations in the region. Overall morale is low. There is a lot of "that's not my job or problem so I am going to pretend I never saw it" kind of attitude around. Everyone I work with (several departments) is either here to get experience so they can go somewhere else, is looking for other work, or is bitter that they don't have any other options. Health benefits are terrible and expensive. I pay 2X what I did with my last job and have half the coverage. During orientation the CEO came in and gave a speech about job satisfaction and how Sanford has a high turnover rate and to let someone know if there is anything they can do to make things better for you before you leave. I have also had a few chats with supervisors about the future and that they want me to stick around and they have big things planned for me. Nobody wants to talk about the low wages or benefits though. Scheduling is terrible. Lots of odd shifts, long stretches (10+ days) without days off, difficult to get PTO time, even for things that were discussed BEFORE I accepted the position when they asked if there were any upcoming commitments that I had to meet.
