Pros

Access to cutting edge technology, vendor relationships, and extremely knowledgeable coworkers.

Cons

Some of upper management changes strategic direction so fast and frequently that you are better off ignoring them and just keep doing what you know had to be done. sooner or later the critical systems update project you were working on that was indefinitely delayed will all of a sudden become an emergency again and the new product deployment management old to be working on instead (that they already paid for 3 weeks of training for 15 people) that was scheduled for deployment in a year is now postponed for at least 3 years because now you are facing a million dollar extended support charge to continue receiving support for the product that 3 months ago decided didn't need an upgrade Even though you already ordered the new hardware for it and had to return it because the upgrade was cancelled.

Pros

Your team members are often what helps get you through the day and stressful environment, Decent PTO is offered, decent work-life balance for hourly employees, access to education materials like CBT nuggets (Company will pay for your certs)

Cons

Despite a large concentration of HCA facilities in the Tampa-Bay area there are little to no job opportunities. West Florida division has stagnant IT employees who sit in entry level jobs for several years not allowing others opportunities for advancement. Field IT managers would rather hire from outside the company than hire a service desk analyst with company knowledge and exp. Despite all this company does to push it's "culture" The service desk works out of a small, dirty office always under-staffed and under funded. Daily workload is often too high for SDAs to keep up with. Very high turn over makes it difficult to keep things stable.

Pros

Pay is good. There is not much that is good about this company. Struggling to find anything good to say.

Cons

Management and staff do not work together. Senior management is disconnected from staff and not engaged at all with the employees. Employees do not know who the senior leaders are. A little more money is NOT worth it. They own you. Benefits are not great. Accrual of PTO is slow.
