Pros

- Most caregivers are good in their delivery of high quality patient care. - Mission and Values are a strongly integrated part of every day work. - Peer leaders and co-workers are generally supportive.

Cons

- Pay and benefits are at or near market, but not competitive. - High turnover rates in both entry level and management. I know of a lot of leaders on the lookout for other jobs. - Mantra "do more with less" means salaried employees work 60+ hours a week and little work-life balance here. - It's a non-profit in terms of IRS status, but really just a big corporation with big silos. - IT and some other departments have been through so many re-orgs and RIFs that they're rendered nearly useless.

Pros

(This is for Providence St Vincent Medical Center in PDX) - staffing ratios - break nurses - ONA union - coworkers on my unit are very helpful and kind (can’t speak for every unit though)

Cons

- upper management hates the nursing union - we are short on many supplies on weekend night shifts - crappy insurance - my unit’s manager is almost never there, they’re always on vacation or working remote. This makes our manager very out of touch with the unit’s needs
