Pros

Serves underprivileged patient populations and local communities. Charitable towards patients that dont have ability to pay. Nursing staff continues to show caring compassion towards patients regardless off the way they are treated by administrators.

Cons

Non-competitive salary compared to other local hospitals, poor benefits package, patient to medical staffing ratios are borderline dangerous leading to rapid burnout, total disconnect between administrative staff and medical staff, weak union representation for CNA, techs, and nursing staff.

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
