The work is interesting if you don't mind crappy benefits and sub-par pay, but the people are wonderful to work with.

Pros

There is a lot of work and my managers are very helpful and want to make sure you have what you need to get your job done.

Cons

The pay and the benefits are terrible. For a hospital, you'd think the healthcare would be better, but it's dismal. 401k contributions are abysmal. The way it is worked out is based on a chart depending on years worked and your position, so there is little chance this will get any better.

BJC is a great place to work, with some small caveats

Business Outlook

Pros

The company offers great flex-time options - both in terms of workday hours, and various work-from-home or 'compressed weeks' where you work 9 or 10 hour days, and then get a day off every other week or every week. There is a wide variety of groups and departments to work for, so there is always something to do. Everyone is very helpful and willing to share knowledge.

Cons

The company is so large, it's easy to feel overwhelmed by it all. Some teams touch every product, and must be (somewhat) knowledgeable on all of them. Being a healthcare industry, there are many teams who must provide 24/7 support. With all vacation, sick time and Holidays rolled into one pool, total time off is less than at other companies. And, the first year it's awful hard to take all the holidays off you would otherwise get. Raises tend to be small, and promotions seem to be rare. How these are determined are somewhat mysterious as well.
