Pros

They mean well, and try hard to be 'nice' People are great. Pay and benefits are on par.

Cons

No vision, no leadership. No long term strategy, or direction for the department. Leadership has demonstrated no background or ability to run dept effectively, beyond crisis management. Being indispensable in the moment, is fine. But how about demonstrating some long term leadership and strategy?

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
