      Unrealistic Expectations - Nursing Administration Novant Health Employee Review

      Pros

      Insurance is pretty good. The yearly bonuses are nice.

      Cons

      There are WAY too many upper administration positions. It's EXTREMELY top heavy. I've been in healthcare almost 20 years and NEVER worked for an organization with so many AVP, VP, Directors, Managers, Market CEO, then individual facility CEOs. If they didn't have so many people in these positions then they might could afford to hire more front line staff. The staff/patient ratios are TERRIBLE. They consistently preach "we need to cut cost" but continue to pay big money to upper administrators that are unnecessary. Upper administration even gets hefty bonuses if they can come in under budget. Administration is almost sickening with their "give remarkable care" sermons, but staff continue to be overworked and underpaid so it gets hard to be remarkable when they are burnt out. It's also sad that the CEO asked employees to post only positive experiences here on glass door and if we had anything not positive to say to discuss our concerns with HR. However HR doesn't do anything with our concerns.

      Pros

      Of all the companies I have worked for Novant has been the best experience. I moved back into leadership after years of having stepped back from leadership due to burnout and frustration. Novant invests more than any company I have seen in both frontline and leader development, with cohesive messaging about priorities. I truly enjoy the teams I work with.

      Cons

      IT was moved to overseas a few years back. They back-pedaled on this and moved some aspects back to domestic coverage, but overall, I can't see where this improves operational efficiency despite surface level savings.

      Pros

      I had a great experience as a Research Assistant at Novant Health. The team was welcoming, collaborative, and supportive of learning. I gained valuable experience in clinical research, data collection, patient interactions, and working alongside healthcare professionals. The environment encouraged professional growth, and I appreciated the opportunity to contribute to meaningful research while developing skills that will benefit my future career in healthcare.

      Cons

      Depending on the project, the workload could fluctuate, and some tasks were repetitive, such as data entry and documentation. However, these responsibilities are a normal part of research and helped reinforce attention to detail.
