Pros

Clinically, the RN staff do great with patients. Treat children really nice.

Cons

Leadership is over bloated and lacks any accountability. HR is simply awful. Filled with nepotism, favoritism, harassment, retaliation, and secret society groups.

Pros

Great coworkers! PICU and ED were very team-oriented and all healthcare teams collaborate together.

Cons

NICU is a very toxic environment. If you are not a nurse, NP's and Neonatologists do not acknowledge your existence or value your opinion. They are very disrespectful and dismissive. There is no teamwork. Benefits are garbage. If you are not seeing an Akron Children's Hospital provider, it is automatically tier 2. Pay is uncompetitive. New hires with no experience are hired at the same, if not higher pay rate as someone with 10+ years of experience. You earn PTO but are never able to use it. Limited to one week off in the summer if your department is understaffed. When CEO Bill Considine stepped down, the entire company turned into a dumpster fire. All they care about is profit and cutting benefits of staff. They can pay travelers ridiculous amounts of money but won't raise staff pay.
