Work on Slave Wages and no raises while CEO rakes in MILLIONS.

Pros

There is not one reason to work here. If I had to choose "something" it would be that you recognize any other job you will ever take will be better than Community Health Systems.

Cons

Lack of transparency in salary scale. Max raise when taking a new positive is 7%. CEO and CFO take in millions and reap huge bonuses while staff gets nothing. Culture is absolutely horrible and is filled with backstabbing and terrible behavior where people run and hide. Dress code is ridiculous. It is not even affordable on the salary that CHS provides.

Repugnant. Greedy. Degenerate. Run.

Business Outlook

Pros

No Career Development. No Merit Raise. Anonymous and opaque compensation levels. Do not expect more than an annual 1.5% 'cola' raise. No merit raise, ever. C-Level staff routinely grants themselves annual salary bumps of over 10%.

Cons

Worst Company to work for in Nashville. This Company has a reputation for poor employee morale, extremely cheap, difficult to do business with and for the poor way they treat Staff. The executive management routinely receives massive levels of compensation while employees receive nothing. There is Zero career development and the turnover rate of the Company is 50%. Nobody stays because the only people who get paid are the CEO and other executives.
