Pros

Good benefits, diverse patient population

Cons

The company culture breeds negativity and an "everyone for himself" mentality. Lack of motivation in many teams, in conjunction with poor leadership, inexperienced management, and a thick smog of burn-out, leads to a negative employment experience for anyone motivated to excel in his or her career. There is a sense among employees that they've already "done something wrong," before starting the day. Compared to other hospitals and healthcare companies I've worked for, unfortunately I have to report that Sutter Health pales starkly in comparison.

Pros

Do you like getting your nose brown? You'll get promoted and treated well even if you cant do the work. Friends or family with management/directors? Congrats! That's all the qualifications you need. Be ready for special treatment in front everyone and for management to annouce you're their special pet. In trouble with HR with things like sexual harrassment? Congrats! Management will cover you and bury the whole thing. Do you fall into the above and your entire team can't do work resulting in pushing your work to a consulting company? No problem! Management is now hiring 5 more to do your teams work and they're giving your work another team so you can keep watching YouTube. If you like to see people's careers and lives get ruined by the above people? Great! They will scheme and lie and backstab to do just that. Welcome to Reimbursement at Sutter! For the sake of current and future employees I wish I'm kidding.

Cons

Horrible compensation outside of medical benefits. Holidays use of PTO. Mandated no work from allowed coming from leadership... Unless you're a manager then you can work from home. If you like to build a career and grow look elsewhere. Learn and get out. They won't promote or even allow mentorship. Low pay. Incompetent people will work less and make more than you. Oh and they'll get promoted too. They STILL don't have an enterprise anything. Every department has create their own server and database and piece the data together. Come on, you're not even allowed put anything on the 4 foot wall. Unprofessional Directors and Managers. Ever hear a manager scream and yell at employees or talk about how dumb they are? I haven't until now

Pros

Good benefits and pension that's all.

Cons

Sadly this is a good unsupportive environment that fosters Blame oriented setting. No one listens to you you're alone when you first start an abandoned. Very poor and stressful on boarding process. No communication between teams. No team cohesion.
