Pros

-Small team feel -Big healthcare company benefits are decent -Work from home was an option several years before COVID -High quality training. -Clear corporate goals. -Middle management is pretty effective. -This company attracts productive workers.

Cons

-Strict attendance policies -recent merger led to poorly trained leaders ending up in management positions and hurting the team/working environment. -HR is not your friend -Large corporate structure means making quick changes to procedure as needed is VERY slow. -Once you're on a team, you're basically waiting for your supervisor to advance, change jobs or retire for any natural advancement. There's very little growth opportunity with in the same job. You'll need to apply elsewhere within the company to grow your career. This is fairly common at large companies, but still frustrating to deal with over multiple years.

Pros

Mellow atmosphere. Low noise. Most people are nice.

Cons

Micromanagement. No phones on the floor, if they see you using it warning then write up. No headphones on the floor. No food or drinks on the floor, including water. Disorganized management. Managers will walk around watching you every 10 mins or so. 1st shift vs 2nd shift sabotage. Bathroom breaks are strictly counted and watched, management wants you to only take them during break time. Start and end times are strictly watched okay if you punch in early for work (7mins) not.okay if you punch out 1min early. No room for advancement. Hiring like crazy, people are dismissed for challenging management like asking why any of the cons on the list are necessary. They are splitting the business to make a secondary independent company.
