Pros
The shifts are 12 hours, so you only work 3 days a week. Most of my coworkers are great to work with. My manager is very accomadating as far as the schedule.
Cons
I have been an employee for 5+ years, but still every "raise" I have received has only bumped my pay to the bottom of the pay scale, therefore brand new employees with no experience at all make the exact same as me, despite being told that I am a great employee, and having good reviews every year. Benefits are quickly disappearing. PTO accrual rate lowered. Excused call in days lowered from 3 to 2. Insurance costs more for worse coverage, although we supposedly switched to a company also owned by Ascension because it would cost less. I guess they meant it would cost less for them, not their employees! Often forced to work in an environment unsafe to the employees and the patients. Most of the time we are short staffed and must take more patients than what our maximum patient load is. The management is mostly ineffective. And that's on a good day when you actually see them or they finally return one of your many unanswered phone calls and emails.
