Pros

Great pay, benefits for the Phoenix area.

Cons

Cutthroat, fear-based, backstabbing, quantity-over-quality of care culture, no support or onboarding or competency sign offs, just sink or swim. Management views you as a commodity to be squeezed for as much revenue as they can get out of you and not a human being. What you did for them yesterday doesn’t matter. The staff are overall very predatory and sense under-confidence like sharks with blood in the water and seize any opportunity to undermine eachother to management and rely on gossip in order to elevate themselves. This is only a reflection of the management from above them and the culture that is perpetuated hospital-wide. At least 1/4 of the department is violating HIPAA on a regular basis going into patient charts/images in which they played no role in their care whatsoever with management well aware for the purpose of ridiculing eachother’s work as if it is a sport. Bullying is a common practice here and plotting witch-hunts by management and their pets is a pastime here. Lots of gaslighting, power games, toxic positivity, narcissistic cult-like behavior. Classic symptoms of a toxic work culture. Union-busting captive audience meetings are forced on the department only to find out a month after the “mandatory meeting” the corporate HR guy giving us the lecture on why unions are bad and “working directly” with management is better got laid off with the major cuts in middle management was actually kind of funny and ironic. Who will hold our union-busting meetings now?

Pros

Nothing positive to say, since the organization has no ethical responsibility, but they like to call themselves "Human Kindness"! There is no approach to Human Kindness as they lack moral and community responsibility.

Cons

Based on my experience, the recruitment process at CommonSpirit Health (Dignity Health) demonstrated shortcomings in professionalism and operational effectiveness, suggesting broader challenges within the HR function rather than an isolated incident. Following a positive interview with the hiring team, I proactively contacted HR and was scheduled for a final interview with the executive leadership team. During this executive interview, the tone and approach were markedly different from prior discussions. Rather than a collaborative or leadership-focused dialogue, the questioning felt adversarial and interrogative, inconsistent with the organization’s stated values and the earlier interview experience. This was not my first interaction with Dignity Health. I have participated in multiple interview processes across several campuses, including Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Bakersfield, and Northern California. Across these experiences, I observed a recurring pattern of limited transparency, inconsistent communication, and a lack of a clearly defined mechanism to escalate concerns beyond the immediate leadership structure. Through subsequent research and conversations with staff, I developed the perception that leadership structures may be highly insular, which can limit accountability and hinder the ability to raise concerns at higher organizational levels. As a result, issues encountered at the campus level appear difficult to escalate through formal channels, raising concerns about governance and authentic leadership across the broader system.
