      Some good, some not great

      Pros

      Pay was pretty good/comparable to standard in community. Rich history of company. Non-profit and really tries to serve the underserved in the community.

      Cons

      Very poor communication - an employee is there one day, the next day a memo is sent out saying that employee resigned "effective immediately" leading to much gossip and many rumors and speculation. This happened often. Morale is very low among many staff members. Managers/directors being asked to do too much administrative work and are unable to focus on patient care and care of staff. Frequent travel and "education" opportunities for senior level people, but nothing for "regular" staff.

      Declining care and respect toward patients and staff

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      They have many job openings for nurses and therapists. Can get in the door easily and quickly. Benefits are comparable to some other area hospitals. Faith-based hospital with some old traditions continuing. No parking fees for patients.

      Cons

      Lack of respect and support for middle management. Middle management afraid to speak up due to high risk in this area. Oppositonal thinking discouraged even with team building exercises. Hostile work environment with very high turnover. Lack of profitability with blame shifted downward while key people who caused (and continue to cause) financial woes are left blameless. Patient satisfaction very low in scoring and evident in day-to-day activities on patient floors. Recent decreases in benefit packages, and salaries have caused more turnover in key areas. Corporate takeover evident with emphasis on profit rather than community service, quality of care and patient satisfaction. Employee satisfaction at all time low. Core values in limbo.

      Disappointing, promises made for benefits and salary that were NEVER kept by multiple departments.

      Pros

      If you're just starting out and need the experience this might be a good choice.

      Cons

      They will not keep promises made when you accept the position unless it's in writing. They routinely slash budgets and employees to the bone until patient care suffers and complaints are made. It is a non-profit hospital system that has internal struggles between religious missions/intentions and correct business policies.
