Prepare for outsourcing and lay offs

Clinical supervisor

Business Outlook

Pros

Benefit package is very good, affordable for a family. Large company. Compensation is decent on hire, but don't expect raises. Great place to work if you're a trained monkey.

Cons

Very little planning goes into any change in procedure or process, resulting in disaster most often. IT server space is inadequate for the number of users accessing the system at the month's end and the company sees this as "normal". Constant threats of lay-offs every time the census drops. Any job functions requiring thought process are outsourced. No job advancement opportunities. Expect to work on personal time. "doing more with less".

Corporate greed on steroids

Business Outlook

Pros

Okay insurance plan. Good physician staff.

Cons

No regard for employees. I know of one employee of 30 years summarily fired as a cost cutting measure...by Email. CHS customarily pays wages in the lower 1/3 of market rates. Nurses are routinely denied time off for doctor's visits and the like even with several weeks notice. Profits are far more important than patients. Employee turnover is high. The only comraderie among employees stems from the feeling that misery loves company.

Lots of Opportunities

Pros

This corporation has recently purchased many Community hospitals to add to the collection. There is room for growth depending upon which region are assigned to. Compensation aligns with Fair Market value.

Cons

Disorganized, too many cooks in the kitchen. The Tennessee office will be running the facilities operations. Budgetary goals are pretty rigorous.
