Pros

The benefits for employees were very competitive based on what I've been offered elsewhere, or what friends and family tell me they have provided by their employers. Also, there are many wonderful employees, providing excellent patient care.

Cons

The middle managers in many departments seem to only care about how they look to Admin. Providence management overall makes a big deal about listening to employee feedback, but nothing really ever made a difference in my department. Our direct manager would ask for our opinions, then do exactly as she desired anyway, even when everyone under her presented a mostly united front for or against some proposed change. Most of the managers there do not actually have to do the job task they now oversee and have no idea anymore what direct patient care is actually like, even though they make the decisions about best care practices and staffing levels.

Pros

Strong leadership, excellent benefits, great pay, fair treatment of employees. One of the things that employees always say what keeps them at St. Jude are the company's Values and the people.

Cons

The environment is highly conservative (women still have to wear nylons if any part of their legs show in their outfits) and often politically sensitive.
