Pros

Not as many as you would think for a metro hospital facility

Cons

Management unsupportive of staff. FV is hisorically top heavy with management, but not always trained in healthcare or healthcare issues. Poor employee satisfaction surveys historically. Unsuportive work environment.

Pros

- The overall mission of helping people in need - IT employees able to work remotely with shifted hours (lookup ROWE) - Could take off 1 day per week if your job was done and not claim it (ROWE) - Amount of vacation is above average - Not much micro-management and you are free to find solutions for problems - Large IT shop with lots of large & scaled out technologies providing good experience

Cons

- Very poor IT Management communication - Very poor IT Management planning/direction/leadership - Immature business processes - Slow to make decisions, usually requires consensus and many meetings to move forward - Very little recognition - Expect 3.5% increase in pay yearly. No more, No less and pretty much everyone gets that. - If you were new coming into Fairview, you would have a hard time meeting people because a lot of them are working remote and there aren't many opportunities to meet people - New employee training is non-existent. - Policies are hard to locate and understand, different from site to site, and often unenforced. - Organic growth into leadership positions has led to people at the top which lack senior management qualities of leadership & direction. They haven't worked anywhere else in the last 20 years to give them perspective.

Pros

Benefits, food discounts, union, decent workload

Cons

No BIPOC in management, no life work balance, Managment doesn't make it easy to understand how to get accommodations, doesn't seem like they are supportive. They criticize you more that thanking you for doing your work. Expect you to do more than what you are paid for no matter what the job description says. Micro manages you.
