Pros

Respectful communication, competitive pay & excellent benefits, bonuses, teamwork, partnership across silos, innovation, surprisingly agile given its size, generous PTO, retirement matching, free parking for Baltimore hospital associates, top talent. Despite the pandemic, this organization has managed to add benefits, pay increases and bonuses while other healthcare organizations have had to freeze raises/retirement matching or furlough staff. If you're in talent acquisition, this organization truly appreciates/values us and provides us with resources to do our jobs! We are thanked by our partners and leaders for what we do. We are respected as consultants/experts in our fields, which we know isn't found everywhere!

Cons

It can be hard to grow professionally in certain career lines. it is challenging talent market, especially in healthcare (nothing to do with MedStar).

Pros

The company has great benefits and you can get a job within the company easily once you’re in.

Cons

It’s all about profit. They don’t as much their patients as they claim, or their employees. It’s all about the numbers and if you can’t keep up with their increasing demands they’ll find someone who can for cheaper.

Pros

Free parking and generous vacation accrual

Cons

Don't let the title fool you; this is a 1980's call center. They literally yell to inform staff, including exempt staff who do not answer employee inquiries via the telephone, to go to lunch (which can be anytime on a given day from 11 - 12:30). You are mandated to take a laptop home everyday, in the event of a weather or other workplace issue but if you need to work from home, forget about it. It is only for their convenience. And the generous vacation accrual is difficult to use; when I was there, the supervisor would call people who were on vacation with workplace questions and thought she could reprimand persons who didn't answer her calls. The same supervisor became irritated if you attempted to schedule your vacation leave months ahead of time. At on point, there was a 100% turnover rate and no one blinked an eye. Lastly, expect to be questioned or challenged on your religious stance. The supervisor will mandate that you submit to their prayers over meals during team meetings.
