Pros

Some good people, but I fantastic mission.

Cons

Weak vp/svp's more interested in politics and visibility than doing good work and supporting teams/employees. Teams full of employees looking to retire in place with no concerns of not performing.

Pros

The pay and benefits were great. Time off was always granted if asked in a good amount of time. Most of the time there were hours that could be picked up in different departments to fill in the gaps.

Cons

I guess since they pay well, the management thinks they can treat you however. Personal life and work life balance sucked if you went full time and had an emergency. Personally I experienced the worst treatment by my Department Administration and supervisors because I was being beaten and mistreated by my husband at the time. They forced me out of my position after 11 years with the company, and illegally wrote me up while on medical leave after trying to commit suicide. Union is friends with management and didn’t like to step in to try and help. I lost everything and almost my life and they didn’t care. I was barred from getting a transfer and to this day I apply to positions and am told I don’t qualify for things that I do. This company is backwards. Workers cheat the system to get away with stealing company time. Employees that have worked there for years have what is known as Kaiseritis. They are lazy and do nothing. Management knows and let’s it continue. DAs are not well versed in the departments they run. If you don’t brown nose you won’t get hours. As a MA I found that 6 RNs we’re making medication errors on 1 patient and was targeted for any move I made because they were friends with some of the supervisors. It is ridiculous. It is all about who you know, not what you know there.

Pros

The benefits and salary are good. Some departments have caring compassionate managers. If you are lucky enough to work with a confident, secure manager then you'll likely have a great experience.

Cons

The company's culture has completely deteriorated. Heartless, vicious, terrible people have been promoted and are now in charge. The best people that turned the company into something special are leaving, being pushed out, or retiring. Very sad to see all the talent leave. Whoever cuts the most get promoted.
