Pros

Great health benefits. Upper Management allows us to push our employees by any methods we see fit. Have to be part of the right click which I am. Located near major interstates and highways. Company has the latest high technology tools. Extremely profitable and we are expected to act and dress professional; however, yelling is totally allowed. Employees are focused.

Cons

Long hours, lots of infighting between departments rather than teamwork. Poor communication and lone ranger mentality. There is a sense of walking on eggshells and forget about doing team building or bonding. Anti networking environment.

CPMC - good place to work

Pros

I can speak for the division I worked. It was great because of opportunities to learn, co-worker encouragement, co-worker attitudes towards a life-work balance, opportunities for advancement. The organization as a whole offers fantastic benefits and a good compensation package. There were always workshops to attend to add to one's knowledge. Patient safety is highly valued, from what I saw.

Cons

The actual manager of my division was on a strange power trip, and made a lot of decisions that seemed unwise and were totally out of touch with what her subordinates thought. However she didn't work there very long since I think she was eventually let go after I left. CPMC has an integral wellness center, but there are still many unhealthy things about the hospital - the cafeteria food was plain bad and artery clogging, cafeteria cleanliness seemed to be low priority, and the hospital doesn't even do basic recycling or other environmental practices. (Perhaps this has something to do with the unions there?) In the research division, all the studies were pharmaceutical company sponsored, but I wish there were more studies focused less on pharmaceuticals and more on overall treatment and overall patient wellness.
