Pros

Very good corporate culture. Sacred Heart (A part of Ascension) focused on the mission of providing very good health care to both paying and charity customers. This made all employees feel like they were contributing to to betterment of society. Also, there were many moral boosting strategies. For example: free lunches for holidays, birthday cards from the hospital, and special events sponsored by the hospital.

Cons

The Senior Leadership seems very disconnected from the rest of the staff. Some do make and effort to attend events, but most act as if they are too busy to attend things like employee forums and town hall meetings. In addition the communication among them is limited. It seems as if they all want to be the one person who "knows everything" so they keep things a secret to the detriment of the Health System.
