Pros

The public still seems to respect us more than other organizations.

Cons

Leadership is awful. Most of time spent rushing from one meetings to the next. Seems the only way to advance to leadership is by spending money to get meaningless extra initials ( MBA, MSN, etc) or being at the organization for more than 20 years and being a yes person whom never questions status quo. The culture is incredibly outdated and nurses are working below their licensure in every position I’ve held.

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
