Pros

Close to home, Magnet hospital

Cons

Cut staff frequently making nurses work short-handed, unsafe. Say they have a "culture of safety" but do not even care about the safety of their own employees. Cut hours and pay, no union so able to get away with discrimination, retaliation. Would rather have people less educated so they do not know when they are not meeting national standards.

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
