      Pros

      I worked in 2 different departments holding 3 different positions in my 8yrs at Ascension and it doesn’t seem to matter what department you’re in, the issues with management and operations remain the same. The only thing that kept me at Ascension were the people I worked with, I met some life long friends along the way. Other than that, this organization (nationwide) is on a rapid decline.

      Cons

      They’re closing entire departments down left and right, entire hospitals have closed their doors leaving staff without jobs in the blink of an eye. Allegedly, the hospital I worked at is losing $30mil/mo (according to my former director) yet the CEO is making $13mil/yr. They do not care about employees or retaining GOOD employees, period. If you want a promotion or decent raise just forget about it. They pile on more and more and more work with no compensation. You have to threaten to quit to get taken seriously and even then, a former director even told my colleague “start interviewing elsewhere, get an offer letter and bring it back to us so we can try to see if we can match” which is INSANE. Ascension is the definition of underpaid and overworked. Insurance traps you with Ascension providers only yet claim its “PPO”. Any provider you want to see outside of Ascension has limited to no coverage.
