Tuition reimbursement is amazing but watch the fine print on it. You pay dearly for the almost free ride to penn state

Very low salary, doesn't regard nurses as professionals. Wondering how they could be a magnet facility.

Benefits are outstanding. Start with four weeks of vacation plus personal time. Tuition assistance is pretty good.

Nurses are unionized and the union can make for a mediocore work force. Difficult to have a work life balance. Pay for per diem nurses is very low.
