Beware!

Business Outlook

Pros

Some great colleagues work there.

Cons

They work you to death. Very dishonest. Even HR. Was verbally assaulted at work and HR did nothing. Had a chart thrown at me by an ER doc- they did nothing. They don't care about their employees at all. They are conniving, deceptive and cunning.

Pros

As a company, Sound really cares about its employees. They pay good wages and provide clear paths for growth.

Cons

There is a persistent culture of feast or famine. If you are doing well your are praises and if you make a mistake you let go pretty quickly.

Need to deliver better on vision and promises...

Business Outlook

Pros

Large physician led (mostly) organization which focuses on bringing value and quality to hospitals and patients for the acute episode of care.

Cons

There are some decent leaders at higher levels but their vision does not translate well through the myriad of administrators and middle management that the company uses, which is both wasteful and detracts from their mission. Benefit package pales in comparison to many competitors as the leadership's philosophy is not to put money into the benefits, but rather have expensive (and wasteful) annual company gatherings (with Black Tie dinners) that are very wasteful and do not help accomplish our primary mission.
