Pros
Senior leadership makes decisions that are tough but are in the best long-term interest of the company. High potential for advancement, lots of opportunity to move within the company. Established HR department that truly implements the company's mission, vision and values. Best in class corporate training and developmental programs. Salaries seem to be on par or better than the industry average.
Cons
An established HR department can be a double edged sword. In some cases, Novant has leaders in place that lack true leadership ability. Leadership positions seem to be filled based on tenure, not proven success and potential for growth. There should be more flexibility in place to re-assign ineffective leaders, regardless of tenure with the company. Also, Novant's tuition reimbursement policy speaks volumes about how little they value higher education. The current policy is to reimburse only $1500 per year, enough to cover a few books but nothing else.
