      Pros

      Large; unlike many large hospitals, they do hire entry-level practitioners - but mostly so they can pay them lower wages. They're always hiring! I had one manager who was amazing. Benefits are pretty good, if you can afford them.

      Cons

      The reason they're always hiring is because either people are leaving because they're dissatisfied or they've been fired because they didn't kiss butt enough. Highly political environment. Highly. Back-stabbing is an art there. Most of the docs are really smart, but many are also the biggest jerks. Make everyone else feel like they don't deserve to exist. Residents are good (because they have to be to graduate), until they become staff. Politics. Pay is well below industry standard. They say it's for the "privilege" of having Cleveland Clinic on your resume.

      Pros

      Health insurance and maternity benefits are great, though some people have been aggravated by the addition of a deductible in 2026. There is also decent tuition reimbursement, but you need to carefully read all of the policies as the wording can be tricky and even HR doesn't understand all of their own policies.

      Cons

      Pay seems inconsistent and raises are a joke, getting lower and later every year. PTO is decent but keep in mind that getting paid for holidays comes from that PTO and plan accordingly. HR is a complete JOKE! They never answer, don't seem to understand any of their policies, and have no idea what they are doing. It takes weeks to get ahold of anyone, and they are the farthest from helpful I've ever experienced. Retirement matching is based on years of service, they will put the money in the account but only vest after 3 years so don't count on the amount it shows unless you know 100% for sure you will be there more than 3 years.
