IT is a mess

Pros

The benefits are decent, human resources does a great job, the medical side seems to be really well taken care of.

Cons

The IT side lacks any sort of standardization across the board. In fact, within individual IT departments you'll find people all do things differently. There is no urgency to put standardization in place. As a result, the entire IT side of things runs extremely inefficiently. Management is more concerned with deadlines than doing the job right the first time. They also do not listen to their employees as is evident by the consistent low scores for the "Great Place To Work" surveys. Overtime is expected regularly due to lack of resources and poor planning. And the company as a whole has no real understanding or appreciation of how much IT drives business. IT in general is an afterthought within Scripps. If that attitude doesn't change, Scripps will be left in the dust. Sharp and Kaiser are already well ahead technologically.

Pros

Worked for Scripps for years, it initially had a very welcoming recruitment Dept. The job provided programs for advancement. They have nice, clean hospitals and efforts at remodeling are great. They treat their patients well and have excellent MD's on staff. Healthcare benefits are excellent and paid time off is accrued nicely.

Cons

Oh boy, where to begin? Scripps "restructuring" over the past few years by slashing staff and piling more responsibilities on the already overworked RN's is a shame. Never enough support staff to do the job-I was backed into a corner and forced to leave when I did not have enough time to complete paperwork on the patients and was not given another chance. HR cold and unsupportive when trying to get rehired within the company-they don't give you the time of day. They don't respond, "due to the large number of job applicants", not even when you had a really good record as I did. Now, I couldn't get rehired if my life depended on it! Cost cutting and restructuring has made this into a corporate atmosphere, not a warm and welcoming place anymore.
