Pros
Variety of patients, high acuity, fantastic ICU physicians and NP's. Flexibility to work 32 hours as full time. Best SLP team there could be (highly evidence based practice, not conservative with swallowing recommendations, no unethical practices).
Cons
No growth - no clinical ladder, no proper raises based on experience/skill, no CEU compensation, understaffed floors with limited RN experience (especially with trachs), limited workspace (~20 computers total for 150+ therapists). Productivity standards: 8 patients/8 hour day. Point system (points given if call in sick: 8 points = fired). Denied resources (SLP team of 9 has 1 endoscope. Most SLP teams have >5). Parking gets more limited every year (now down to one lot). Do not get compensated for having specific certifications.
