Pros

Shut up or have your reputation and livelihood taken from you.

Cons

They do not practice what they preach. “Patients first” UNLESS that means escalating concerns.

Benefits great, Organization not so much

Registered nurse

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The benefits, night differential is decent, and coworkers

Cons

The organization is only focused on metric driven outcomes and never their employees (atleast from management). PTO also wasn’t allowed to be taken unless it was your week for vacation — to which management said it would be unfair to give people isolated PTO days.
