      Pros

      The medical benefits are outstanding. There are some outstanding employees with integrity at Kaiser.

      Cons

      Management is very poor. Communication is very poor. Management is power hungry and it is a very disempowering environment to work in. Management breeds an atmosphere of favoritism and nepotism. It is a very hypocritical environment as well. Employees are constantly told we must save money, yet we see our superiors wasting money constantly on big parties, extravagant dinners and such on a regular basis. Kaiser just sunk thousands and thousands, if not millions, on a substandard HealthConnect program that barely meets the needs of the company. There are parties and remodels of remodels over and over again.

      Pros

      The best reason to work at Kaiser is if you have a need for affordable health care and are a strong believer in the medical care provided by Kaiser.

      Cons

      If you choose to not accept Kaiser medical insurance then an alternate compensation is provided however, you will not receive sick or vacation time. Management consists of individuals with only AA degrees without prior management experience or understanding to the dynamics of an interdisciplinary team. Almost all managers are nurses therefore limited in understanding the complexities of other disciplines. Management positions are "at will" positions and therefore act in a "cut throat" /demeaning manner when addressing issues related to employees. Management is not able, prepared or trained to communicate and maintain an acceptable level of professionalism.
