Pros

The pay isn't bad to start out, other than that.. not much else.

Cons

Zero loyalty to current employees, would rather high externally than internally. Very very rarely does anybody get a raise that one would bat an eye at. Not easy to move between departments and get promotions. If you do get a promotion to another team or dept there is an internal policy of no more than 7% raise. Most people leave the company for 6 months and then come back to the position they want and then they get the salary they deserve. If you don't work in the HQ you never see the CEO, I work in the office a stones throw away from the HQ and I've never seen him or met the man. When I was hired there was no knowledge transfer from the person that was in the position before me, I had to learn it all from scratch with zero help from my management. Health benefits are some of the worst I've seen from a company that makes nearly half a billion a year. I have zero doubt this company will grow and leadership will stay the same, because that's how it's setup to do. The rich get richer while the employees pay huge amounts in insurance and never get raises or promotions.

Pros

Half priced meals to employees at hospital, beautiful facility. Physical connection to hospital makes transfers easy for acute care. Accessability of mental health support for residents is great. Availability of wound care consultants and care is very good.

Cons

Nepotism in nsg dept. re: RNAC dept. HR involved in staff issues. Hospital demands on LTC administration takes staff and time away from LTC. RNAC dept not willing to work with staff nurses to help improve issues. Lack of orientation training for new staff and inability to locate nursing policies and procedures. LONG hallways connecting nursing units makes managment difficult. Nursing Assistants unsupervised.
