If you have ever lived or worked outside Bham, the culture will be somewhat different here. It is not 'open-minded' - Director Encompass Health Employee Review

Pros

Nice bldg. Pay decent. One of few large corps in area.

Cons

Redneck culture in places. There is opposition to any open GLBT discussion. Very strong GOSSIP circles with a few chatty Cathy/Chad types ruling the roost. Unfortunately, HR is a strong part of that which means there is often inappropriate sharing of personal info. Some arrogance in the upper mgt. (although I believe that is somewhat universal in corporate world.)

Pros

Great team to work, people are always willing to help each other. The clinicians genuinely care about their patients and it shows every day. You feel like you’re making a difference in patients’ lives. Good teamwork between departments. Leadership listens to feedback and wants the hospital to keep improving. Positive work environment with coworkers who care about doing a good job.

Cons

Healthcare is busy, so some days can be stressful. Things can change quickly, so you have to be flexible. Communication between departments can always improve. Like most hospitals, staffing can be tight at times.
