Pros

Wonderful mission, compassionate care teams, & a lot of opportunities for continued learning and growth

Cons

Disorganized and confusing company structure, & as of 2018 we all had to start participating in a difficult online health incentive program in order to earn money to put toward our health insurance. The health insurance also has a high deductible, and the coverage doesn't kick in until you have met that deductible (of $1200). Since Providence is non-profit, their salaries are generally not as competitive as the other big hospitals in the area.

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
