Pros

There are no pros to working for this company. They are all about self and the bottom line $$$$$.

Cons

They will work you to death with no appreciation, nurse to patient ratio is horrible. You will end up stressed out, worn down, and mentally whipped. If you try to leave, they will try their best to prevent you from obtaining another job by giving bad references. In my situation, I had all I could take, and left without giving a two week notice but I did finish my shift and clocked out. They were telling references that I simply walked off the job in the middle of my shift and if that were true, I would have lost my license. Needless to say, most prospective employers saw right through that and hired me anyway. Unless you plan on staying there until all your parts stop working, I would not work there, the only loyalty they have, is to themselves. The best thing there was the coworkers.

Pros

3 month orientation period, offers an in-service where you have a meet and greet with the CEOs, and offers in house certifications such as BLS and ACLS

Cons

Enforces being "on-assist" which is being on-call on your off days and do not get paid for it and are written up if you don't come in, 7:1 Nurse to patient ratio, constantly short staffed. tuition reimbursement program is on "hiatus" and has been since my employment. Insurance offered is a joke compared to other companies

Pros

Quality level 2 trauma facility. Good physician interactions.

Cons

Poor pay and benefits. Anything wrong in the system is attributed to nursing staff. Consistently reminded you ate easy to replace.
