      Management at Sutter needs a major overhaul.

      Pros

      Good benefits and retirement. They got rid of the traditional pension they use to offer. Salaries are failry competitive with other local clinics (excluding Kaiser). You get a $20 Safeway gift card at Christmas (this might belong in the downside column).

      Cons

      Management is allowed to bully employees and human resources is of little help. People in management positions are often focused on moving up the ladder, rather than on being good to their employees. The human resources department works for management, rather than as a mediator. Sutter is very top heavy with management. When they make cuts, for financial reasons, they make the cuts from the frontline/working staff.

      Sutter Health is Very Unhealthy

      Pros

      Sutter is a great place to be from. Treat it as a training ground for a "real" career in healthcare. Sutter is the poster child for how NOT to run a hospital, and how NOT to treat staff. The incredible employee turnover rate means there are always openings, at all levels.

      Cons

      Very low pay scale; treating patients like cattle; concern from management with nothing but the bottom line, no matter how it impacts patients and staff. Sutter keeps pushing the envelope on maintaining the barely legal levels of staffing and training. When patient care suffers as a result of policy, the front line staff is thrown to the wolves. Prime example: Sutter tried to replace Certified Nursing Assistants with uncertified Patient Care Assistants. The PCA's were former janitorial staff who had all been fired and made to reapply for the new positions... at reduced salary. This was so bad that it only lasted about a year, but the damage was immense and long-lasting.

      Pros

      The pay and benefits are good. Ample amount of paid time off. The working hours are very manageable.

      Cons

      The managers need better training on how to work with their subordinate's. Better training for new employees. The three campuses need to work more in unison.
