Pros

Pay is adequate Good experience

Cons

If you are an EMT and you are thinking about applying to UCLA RR ED, DON’T. They preach about how they treat their employees like family and will have your back. BUT they absolutely don’t. They view you as a workhorse and treat you accordingly. You are only there to make them money. At the end of the day they act as huge corporations usually do, without respect or any consideration for their employees health and well-being. For your sake and the sake of your mental health don’t apply here. It’s not worth it. The nurses are better than most I’ve worked with. But they still treat you as dispensable no matter how hard you work or how great you are with patients and colleagues.

Pros

probably competitive salary compared to other academic institutions - but not compared to private practice

Cons

Toxic workplace environment. Many workplace harassment cases, a number of perpetrators even in vice chair ranks, protected by upper management. Upper management (chairman and executive vice chair) treat faculty and staff like expendable commodities. They demonstrated gross managerial incompetence during the height of the COVID crisis. They implemented a shift model, which forces faculty to stay till 10PM on several days of the month. Not healthy! This was not driven by operational needs but rather to impress UCLA management with the goal to extend the chairman's tenure who is due to retire. Nepotism is commonplace. The radiology department is in urgent need of new leadership.
