Pros

The staff is friendly and helpful for the most part. Management is great about working with staff as far as adjusting schedules if you want to attend school or have some type of emergency. There are also great education incentives. You can almost always pick up extra shifts if you want to make a little extra money.

Cons

It is sometimes hard to get days off if you do not plan far in advance. Frequent mandates.

Pros

There really are none to this hospital.

Cons

Very toxic work environment. Operates like a high school cafeteria. Constant backstabbing by other managers and directors. Employ outside physicians who are accountable to no one and will not work to improve care or facility. Constant turnover of staff.
