Pros

Very good PTO and good benefits. Organization says they have good life balance.

Cons

Certain managers/areas take advantage and work/life balance does not exist. Promises on advancement never seem to happen.

Pros

Most associates have a genuine desire to do the best that they can regardless of the environment.

Cons

Cannot speak for all Independent Health affiliate companies in Western New York but if you are in a Management role as I was formally, you will be taken advantage of by being forced to take on an insurmountable workload and held accountable for poor decisions made by executive leadership. The expectation is that you will be married to your job, which includes being able to be contacted while on PTO. The behind the scenes motto is that everyone is replaceable, which is opposite of what is said in front of the larger associate population. Many positions are held by individuals who in no way earned the roles but there is a common theme as to why they have them, if you look close enough. If you are supervisory level or above and considering a position at an Independent Health affiliate, do some soul searching prior to applying as you will take this work home with you and you will be made to feel defeated, regardless of how effective you are as a leader. For such a small organization, you would be surprised at the politics that are in play.

Pros

Competitive salary, amazing health insurance, incentives for not being a slob(aka incentives for healthy activities), lots of volunteer opportunities, great coworkers. On site gym.

Cons

401k match doesn't hit until after a year which is kind of silly. Company is smaller so there is a limit to movement up the ladder. Less vacation time than would be expected. Work/ life balance is needed.
