Pros

Being such a huge part of Hampton Roads many discounts at local businesses. Insurance plan is cheaper than my husband's.

Cons

Very difficult to get into the system Prior to my current position there, I applied about 5 times to 5 different positions with no response that I was overly qualified for. It wasn't till they needed me that they offered me a position. The upper management wants the employees to work understaffed and just "get by" to obtain the ultimate goal of getting more patients done. Example; 6 staff members doing 110 patients daily, the work of 7 or 8! We are doing it but patients are complaining and hr long waits. Management does not understand why there are so many complaints are coming in.

Pros

Employees are very nice and work together well.

Cons

This company states that they care for the employees, but they do not. You have to work there for 2 years before getting paid a sick day, so do not get sick! The overwork the employees, constantly run short of staff, just another typical nursing home. Are there any good nursing homes out there? this one is supposed to be non-profit, but it is all about the bottom line. How does that make sense?

Pros

Salary was comparable. Benefits were good. Lots of vacation time. Great experience. Flexible schedule.

Cons

My manager was great, but upper management only cared about what was going to benefit them even if they have to lie, deceive and cheat you.
