Pros

Great people to work with! Great with education since nursing is always changing! Great insurance for employees!

Cons

Limited Resources, staff shortage, salary is below par.. they say they compare to Atlanta hospitals but it's no where near the hourly pay in Atlanta. You feel sometimes that you are just a body and the hospital doesn't care about you.

Pros

The only pro for St Mary's is that it's a great place for young RN's to get their first job.

Cons

St Mary's at one time was a good place to work (before CHE/TH took over). The CEO/CFO have left in the last 12 months and current/interim leadership is worthless. If you want a position that offers growth, look at other employers. In addition, wages at SMH are well below national average across the whole hospital. The best thing for morale at the hospital would be a buyout. Emory was looking at the hospital, but backed out. Everyone was hoping that acquisition would've happened. Corporate pushes too much nonsense and the executives don't have enough brass to stand up for what's right (and the people).

Pros

Faith Based Organization, Its Athens, Georgia. Great town, too bad this hospital is not as good as its advertising.

Cons

Lots of administrative red tape, insufficient staffing levels, unresponsive administration. Basic equipment and supplies not provided to take care of patients. Post-OP patients taken off of monitors because there are not enough to go around. So some patients' care is compromised to take care of the most "acute" post-op arrivals. TERRIBLE. 8 patients to one RN. TERRIBLE.
