      Professional, non-clinical employees undervalued

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      It's easy to get behind the hospital's mission.

      Cons

      Minimal opportunities for career advancement for those in non-clinical positions. Non-clinical staff are overworked and underappreciated. No life-work balance. Expectation that exempt employees will continually work excessive hours. Promotion is very much linked to who you know, not what you are capable of. Management does not inspire trust.
