Pros

Swag. Road shows. Conversations about feelings, if that is your thing.

Cons

This company spends so much time trying to sell their culture that it is a brainwashing experience. If they would focus on getting processes in place and following the right procedures, they could succeed. Instead, 70% of their day is spent TALKING about great culture (not creating a great culture), 20% of their day is TALKING about people, and 10% of the day is spent doing the work or helping their people. There are always activities going on to distract you from realizing the brainwashing affects. They talk so much about their culture, they hand out swag to bribe you, but they don't help their employees advance in their careers nor do they even care about their careers. Management can't make decisions. They tell you one thing in a meeting, then they talk to their boss and have to come back to tell you to do something differently. Then you do it, and they come back and say someone else said to do it differently. They do not teach you. They do not empower you. If you're looking for swag and rah rah chants, without any personal growth, this might be the place for you. Management spends a lot of time judging people and talking poorly about people, yet they don't provide the coaching and tools to help them improve.

Pros

CHG sincerely cares about people. I love working here and feel that my leaders always have my back. I'm also proud of the positive difference we're making in the world. In addition to supporting the healthcare system, we help send medical providers on mission trips around the world.

Cons

Not much to mention here. Wish we had more sabbaticals offered. Better 401(k) match would be appreciated, as well.

Pros

Ability to work from home. OK pay. Mostly great people to work with.

Cons

Used to be a company that never laid people off. Now it seems that every month, some group has layoffs. We are being told that AI won't replace any people, yet people are being laid off and not replaced. Promotions from within are rare. VPs are hired from outside the company. Culture has changed. Bad behavior is tolerated if that person gives good results for the bottom line. Leaders can push to have people in other departments demoted or fired. Many leaders only pay lip service to Work/Life balance. I often take my computer with me on my days off so I can jump on and take care of things. I frequently answer emails and phone calls on days off. Lots of pressure to come into the office to work, even if the rest of your team isn't there. Messaging from management is confusing. We are told that CHG is gaining market share in a difficult market and then told that CHG isn't meeting its goals, so raises will be very small and the bonuses won't be that great. But somehow CHG is doing really well. Skip level 1:1 are a waste of time. I've figured out that if I just get whoever I'm talking to talking about their stuff, I don't actually have to say anything. If I do manage to bring up a concern or ask a question, I'm told that I'm making an interesting point, but I don't get any further information or answers. Basically, CHG has become just like any other corporation.
