Pros
Pay if you're an experienced Nurse, New Hires pay is terrible. Double time Holidays, (I'm sure that will go away soon, just like our PRN pool) Independent work environment, lots of accountability if you are a talented Nurse. Great Co-workers.
Cons
Floor to floor Drama, ICU Nurses are incredibly rude. Management will never note your accomplishments, but will stand 1st in line to "write you up" for anything, even 1 minute late Badge In. Poor advancement, Selected "Favorites" Really, truly enjoyed my work until Management took over our area and was totally unfair to long term nurses with unfounded criticisms, only believing "one side of the story" Patients are Indigent population and Management believes everything they report, even total lies! But, Hey, that's what OBama Health Care is all about, give free care to those who don't appreciate it or pay into the system!
