Pros

Pay and bonuses that is it. The health insurance benefits are annoying not the best.

Cons

Their “ICARE” values BS is used as convenient as possible this is just so YOU can take all the rude, abusive and dehumanizing behavior from other employees and patients. Micromanaged at all times you are not treated as an adult and if you attempt to move to another department, you will be waiting for a long time because you will be ignored. And don’t you dare get sick and not show up to work because they will try to make you feel guilty about it even if you have a doctor’s note. Is just sad and toxic environment, really depressing to work for this company.

Pros

The transition to Workday is a welcome modernization that brings the organization more in line with other large health systems.

Cons

the work-life balance for Advanced Practice Providers (APPs) needs significant improvement. The criteria for earning administrative time place unrealistic expectations on APPs, making it difficult to achieve a sustainable workload. It is especially discouraging to work alongside physicians who have more attainable criteria for protected administrative time, creating a sense of inequity that negatively impacts morale. Additionally, there is little flexibility in scheduling. Offering 0.8 or 0.6 FTE positions would help retain experienced APPs who want to continue providing high-quality patient care while maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Without these options, many APPs are left choosing between full-time burnout and leaving the organization altogether. the work-life balance for Advanced Practice Providers (APPs) needs significant improvement.
