Pros
Decent equipment, decent benefits, tuition reimbursement, opportunities for advancement, deep rock water, air conditioning (sometimes), coffee (syrup), pretty clean facilities.
Cons
Profits trump good patient care, volume in the Hospital dictates staffing. All they care about is how many patients are seen with little regard to how sick the patients are you care for or how many resources a single patient can require. They routinely send staff home due to "low volume" even though we routinely work short staffed. They are more concerned with "STUDOR" and making patients happy so they can get their chunk of cash from the the government. They put very little effort into retaining and recruiting experienced and qualified nursing staff, rather they hire many new grads for cheap labor so they can manipulate them to become "charge capture machines" for the maximum reimbursement. Went to many meetings about productivity and customer service but never about quality. They use the worst charting (billing platform) known to mankind, known as meditech (basically just a step up from a typewriter as far as usability- but hey it's fantastic for billing😊). They'll come and reprimand you for not filling out a white communication board in a patients room but fail to praise you for the heroic efforts of saving lives every single day. It's all about PROFITS PROFITS PROFITS!!!! Oh, and the one I work at has shared patient rooms which is simply disgusting and humiliating.
