      Pros

      Benefits excellent, salary on par with other hospitals in medical center.

      Cons

      No way to advance. Management not involved in day to day work, which keeps them out of touch of true issues and problems. Changes too slow to take place.

      Truly disappointing

      Pros

      - Unbeatable benefits - Excellent reputation to the outside, not internally

      Cons

      - There is rarely if ever enough money to give raises, fund projects, etc. - The clinical care is absolutely chaotic. I would not be a patient here. - Management follow through in the administrative and clinical areas is lacking. - Very little accountability for management. They answer to no one; senior management is too busy to deal with smaller issues. - There is no room to move on the administrative side, unless you move to a different department, which may not be the area you wish to work in.

      Insight into working at Methodist.

      Pros

      The benefits are great (I think). I do not have a whole lot of work experience, though. I've only had two jobs since I finished my undergrad a little over 5 years ago. There are a lot of resources for employess: wellness center (workout facility, massages, accupuncture, etc.), employess assistance program (for those in need of financial or mental help - among other things), volunteer opportunities, etc., etc. There is a 403(b) that matches anywhere from 4%+ (depending on position and years of service, I believe) as well as a Defined contribution plan which is a percentage of your salary based on position and years of service, as well. Plus we have been in the top ten of the Fortune 100 Best Companies to work for for the last few years - I personally think it's kind of a fluke, but they must be doing something right.

      Cons

      Appears to be quite difficult to transfer within the system. There are new rules defining how an employee must go about the process: inform your direct boss FIRST, then if you are invited to interview in another department/entity, etc. your boss is informed and can decline to allow you to interview, long process that your current boss can drastically slow down.
