Pros

Coworkers are excellent and supportive, especially in light of the recent cut backs in staff. The doctors are very professional and easy to work with.

Cons

Pay rates are very low. Many internal operating issues go unaddressed or unresolved.

Ruined a great hospital

Pros

I have to have an income! Nearing retirement, have worked here my whole life. Know the patients and physicians well. A lot of staff that's been here a long still have that sense of family that made us so successful before CHS came along.

Cons

Where to start? They want to centralize everything in Nashville, which has not only cost jobs locally but has people making decisions for us that don't know this facility. The centralized computer system stays screwed up, suppliers we'd used for years and had good relationships with- gone in favor of cronies who deliver inferior service. We were successful long before they got here, and it's acknowledged that we "carry" some of the underperforming hospitals. So why come in and change everything? They've done away with some benefits, some of which may seem minor but were important to the staff. We had always gotten a Christmas bonus and ham, as well as twice-yearly free dinners where admin served staff steak and shrimp. All gone.

Pros

Great people and a solid pay with strong work life balance. They are looking for talent and building great teams to improve many departments. Patients are the center of the work

Cons

Very conservative traditional office culture. Siloed organization. Rough financial times for the company means raises and bonuses are scarce.
