Pros

I have been with this company for nearly a decade, and after spending many years prior in other healthcare firms in the area this one was - and still is - one of the very best healthcare employers in the Central Maine region (and arguably, the entire State!). The organization spends a great deal of time and resources on doing what it takes to be the premier provider of healthcare to the community, as evidenced by the major investment a few years ago in building a state of the art hospital, opening earlier than planned. Senior management is exceptional at listening to staff's ideas and incorporating them when feasible. I feel valued as an employee and appreciate that level of support. The recent outstanding Joint Commission audit is another positive example of the positive trajectory this organization is on! I have changed jobs internally three times since coming to MaineGeneral (each one involving more responsibility). Because I believe in professional growth and have worked hard to improve my skills and knowledge I have been afforded opportunity to grow with the organization. Anyone here can do the same thing with some personal drive and determination to better themselves.

Cons

Every business has pros and cons, but MaineGeneral does not have any cons in my opinion that rise to the level of a major concern.

Great, supportive work environment. Lots of educational opportunities.

Cons

Patient ratios are sometimes unmanageable but unfortunately that is everywhere in healthcare these days.

Pros

NONE, FIND SOME PLACE BETTER, DECEPTIVE

Cons

No paid maternity leave for new mothers unless you've worked there for a year. Because after all family planning is totally and one hundred percent predictable. If you decide you want to have a family before this arbitrary date you will receive no support from this institution. I was lied to during my interview process about this benefit several times and it played a huge role in my decision to choose to work here, a decision have come to regret now. Maine general has decided that you're bonding time with your new born is less special if you have not worked there for an arbitrary amount of time regardless of whether you are full time or not. Its shameful and disgraceful and turned what should have been a happy time into an unbelievable stressful time. Do yourself a favor and find a hospital that believes in families and values and treating its employees like human beings not just interested in making a few extra bucks and padding the pockets of the C suite.
