Pros

Good Benefits. Depending on management/supervisor can be a great place to learn and gain experience as well as a great work environment. Personal Time and Sick leave are front loaded for the year so you have all time banks available for use.

Cons

No raises to adjust for cost of living. If there is a merit increase it is only 1-2%. Pay scale leaves much to be desired. HR will not approve raises above 12% so even when getting promoted the pay is often times lower than other organizations.

Pros

Love working for UT Physicians! Best job I have ever had in 20+ yrs in healthcare. Benefits are awesome. We get medical, dental, vision, PTO and sick time, pension plan, and a while bunch of other benefits. Hours are good and reliable. Not a lot of OT. My manager is amazing, can not say enough good things about my manager. Just an overall great job. Oh, raises are yearly and not to shabby. I always get 3%-4% raises.

Cons

The only real complaint I have is the pay itself. I wish it was a little higher. Cost of living is sky high and even with 3% raises it not enough sometimes to make ends meet. I am not sure the higher really know how hard the struggle is. I think salary could be a little higher especially since some of us have 20+ years experience.
