Pros

Surrounded by some great teammates with great heart and great smarts

Cons

It's a command and control environment where the core product and tech leaders play favorites and manage people out (either through layoffs or take work away from those who disagree with them). They say they're agile and that they practice scrum, but they'll drive you through death marches with every release. All this amounts to very little innovation and an environment where fear, intimidation, and even retribution rule. It's that toxic, and the leadership team is fully aware and has promoted these individuals to run product and engineering.

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
