Pros

They have a great human resources department, they pay fairly, have great benefits and retirement. They really are safety and patient oriented which is refreshing to see in the healthcare industry.

Cons

They are very centralized and unlike being a part of a small business, employees with good ideas and innovative thoughts may not have the ability to be heard effectively due to the restrictive roles of the supervisors.

Pros

Growth potential. Great co-workers. Great place to build lasting business relationships. Most of the departments have a "teamwork " attitude. Sentara has several core values that are taught, a lot of them can spill over into your personal life, and help mold you into a better focused person.

Cons

Sometimes, being under the wrong manager can make going to work hard! We lost a valuable manager in the department I worked in; and got a "she-devil". Employees that had been with the company for YEARS, all of a sudden began to leave. Several of the employees began looking for other work, and going to work was no longer a nice place to be. When this new manager left the department, for higher ground, things got a bit better, but not much.

Pros

The benefits are good, they are reasonably flexible, work environment is decent and most of your team works well together.

Cons

Some co-workers tended to treat care partners like work horses, MANAGERS definetely favor certain employees, if you weren't in the "clique" good luck. The pay definetly wasn't always worth working as hard as you do.
