Pros

Lets just say not many exist. It is a job if one is needed. That is the only pro.

Cons

Horrible benefits for a healthcare organization. Surrounding health organizations offer way better options, pay and coverage. The pay at Ascension is garbage, which is why the employee retention rate is sooooooooooo bad. It is seriously bad. High turn-over which causes there to be a lot of inexperienced staff working. No Raises even though they are non-for profit and they are sitting on billions of dollars and the CEO's of the "non-for-profit" company are making tens of millions of dollars a year. If that doesn't sum it up then I don't know what will. The staff morale at every Ascension site I have been at is the same, horrible! That starts at the top. Instead of firing lower level management (as they like to do), I think the upper level management and above should be fired. That is where the change is needed. Not on the lower end. This organization spews tons of stuff out that talks themselves up to look good like they have values and morals. That couldn't be further from the truth. The companies actions negate all that, and the company is stupid if they think the staff doesn't see right through all of it.

Pros

Decent benefits and flexible work hours even though they’re well above 45 per week

Cons

Too many reorganizations. Outsourcing multiple IT teams to India has most fearing for their job. There’s no loyalty given back to a loyal and high performing employees, it seems everyone is disposable for the cheaper foreign work. Current employees would be fools to not look outside of this organization due to leadership failures like this. It does not ‘live their mission’, and is not the same company I was once proud to be a part of. If you’re looking for 6 months of experience to put on a resume before being eliminated, this is the place for you.
