Pros

Great people, with great work ethic at the staff level. Exposed to wearing many hats and all facets of the job due to the lean understaffed model. Helping patients recover and making a difference in lives.

Cons

Remember this is an east coast run for profit organization with locations all across the USA. They run lean, understaffed, under paid, over working employees. Salaried employees easily put in over 12 hours per days. Clinical ratios are higher than the norm. Management is in the weeds and are expected to handle front line work. Many smaller departments are a staff of 1, where they are the manager, staff member, admin all rolled up into one job. They are expanding quite rapidly and have opened countless new locations over the past few years. With minimal corporate infrastructure in place, it was a struggle to keep compliance and enforce basic workplace polices. Many managers would make it up as they go, which was shocking for a company with revenue in the multi billons. As you would think they would self regulate, ensure the company is not at risk.

Pros

I can only think of the free scrubs.

Cons

Pay is not good for experienced RNs. The workload is outrageous. Night shift is a CNA paradise in that the CNAs do little to no work all night while everything is on the back of respiratory and nursing. Why is this company still not using some sort of computerized access? It's welcome to 1970 there. The makeup of the staff is new grads, agency nursing, and people returning to the workforce after being unemployed for awhile. I can't think of any non-agency RTs or RNs with any kind of current hospital experience that would put up with the climate here that consists of paper charting, paper orders, and a punitive atmosphere. Select won't even contribute to the school of your choice for tuition reimbursement. Thumbs down on pay, workload, benefits, and atmosphere. I would only work in a long-term position here as an agency RN making the big bucks and nothing else.
