Pros

Schedule - Typically five 8hr shifts, Mon-Fri, Weekend call every other month, Weekday call once per week. Tuition Reimbursement at 100% if you are .6FTE or higher (Will change in June 2014) Surgeons are friendly and fun to work with for the most part

Cons

RNs have little to no say in practice/policy changes within the Surgical Services department. Call pay is decreasing to only $2.25/hr and getting paid for a minimum of 3hrs (starting in June). Limited availability to take vacation. Management doesn't support staff who "speak out" they are labeled as "trouble makers" and treated with a threatening attitude. Many changes taking place in June 2014 including a 6.5% decrease in pay.

Pros

Benefits are good to work in the health care companies. Experiences collaborating with scientists and doctors to help learning new things quickly.

Cons

Senior management needs to be more stable. It may get quite cold in winter, sometimes takes half an hour to dig car out of the snow, so please get an underground parking while living in Madison if possible. Heavy constructions in the UW hospitals area at the present.
