Pros

Easy to get in, but impossible to move up. Whatever position you start in, is the position they will keep you in. It’s like the McDonald’s of healthcare. They wouldn’t promote me so I went to HCA to improve. They would rather lose you than promote you.

Cons

Singing and dancing at important meetings No upward mobility Poor senior leadership

Pros

- The training is paid.

Cons

- The Facility Manager (FA) and your Preceptor will openly lie to you to see how you respond. - You will also be constantly reminded that you will most likely be terminated. - The FA will pull you into a meeting and ask you inappropriate questions about your age, family, and social life. - You will be marked as "Under performing" if you show any emotion or not enough emotion. - They skirt around the number of hours you will be working. - You do not receive the required breaks for working 15 hour shifts. - You will constantly be told you are not doing this for the money, and that is true, The pay is horrible for everything you are put through and expected to do.
