Pros

Good, entry-level job to get your foot in the door with Sentara and maybe(MAYBE) move up or transfer to another department/location. If you are unemployed and aren't getting a call back from ANYONE ELSE. If you're bored and want to do a menial job and not worried about money. Maybe the benefits?

Cons

Consistently understaffed. (who isn't post-2020) Pay is pretty weak from facilities to clinicians.(It's Sentara, duh) management enables laziness accepts laziness immoral no accountability

Pros

Enjoy the people I work with and the work I do brings me satisfaction with my job. Very innovative and always looking for opportunities to grow and learn. Management is amazing and is always willing to listen to you even at the VP level.

Cons

If you come into Sentara and started at the low end of the pay scale, there are limited opportunities to make meaningful jumps in pay unless you leave the company and come back. They do not perform routine compensation review and market adjustments for management and the only level you can go from manager is director then VP . These positions are hard to come by and limited because you basically need to wait for someone to be promoted or retire in order to move up.
