Pros

The co-workers within whatever team you are working on, that are on or around your same pay-grade, tend to be very nice to work with. If you like politics and have an interest in Information Technology, than UPMC might be for you. You get a paycheck every two weeks and benefits are reasonable.

Cons

Nepotism throughout the organization. There is a lot of people who really shouldn't be in the positions they are in. Some IT vendors are chosen not for the quality of their product, but who in executive management has financial interest in or otherwise is getting a kickback of some sort from. Many in IT Management don't have any technical background which leads to a lot of wasted time and money since decisions will be made on IT management's misunderstanding of problems, leading to solutions to problems that don't work. IT management typically will find a scapegoat below them to blame for their uneducated decision. This tends to be the low to mid-paygrade folks(non-management).

Great place for a misogynist to work!

Pros

There were good benefits, and most of the coworkers made it enjoyable. Most of the department managers and supervisors were great to work with.

Cons

Senior management and the executive team are not very supportive, and although the president is a woman, the men do not seem to respect women.

Pros

UPMC is an excellent organization that is the leading healthcare provider in the region. The research and medical advancements they are making are just amazing. They offer good benefits to their full-time employees and the healthcare benefits are affordable!

Cons

In my particular department, it seems that management lacks the actual skills to manage a group of people. They seem to be more interested in their personal agendas than the work of the group, and don't go to bat for their employees. That is just my department though, and I can't speak for other departments out there.
