Very Dissatisfied

Pros

Large employer with lots of opportunity for advancement and lateral transfers. Tuition reimbursement. Decent Pay. Fairly short commute

Cons

Health insurance is a joke. Assembly line approach to patient care with speed being the focus as opposed to doing a good job. Huge sense of entitlement in long term employees. Management does not listen to employee concerns. Orientation process completely confusing and without structure. Actually heard long term care residents belittled and called derogatory names by staff. Nursing staff regularly requested support staff to preform duties beyond their scope of practice. Have to fight to get paid for hours worked. Schedule changes without employee approval or even notification. Disrespect for support staff.

Ambulance Service - Weird Mix

Pros

This place is on the border of being a great job. Like all places, management could use some management. Hard to get fired (this could be a bad thing). There are moments of down time and you can run errands while on the clock. They help pay for school. You can educate yourself in all levels of EMS and they will provide the means.

Cons

The companies benefits are crap. No matching 401k. Pension is minuscule and takes 5 years to become vested. Health insurance has gone way up and in monopolistic requiring you to only use their providers (should be illegal). No real kudos for when you go above and beyond. Don't hurt yourself or get sick, they will probably just fire you. And don't mention the word union.

Pros

Employees a large portion of the greater Roanoke Valley. Gives back to the community. Non-profit organization that provides care to those that have no insurance.

Cons

Lack of communication for 90% of the employees creating duplication if effort and poor patient and employee care. Extremely political. Contradictory to mission. Constant change in direction. Employees do not feel valued or appreciated.
