Fair, caring leads, great teamwork.

Healthcare partner

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Senior ER techs are very experienced, leads are always supportive, and it’s a great learning environment. Nurses are very caring.

Cons

Challenging patient population with comorbidities make the shift very long and challenging. Many of the patients speak Spanish, so bi-lingual is almost a must.

Poor leadership (specific only to IS, cannot speak to other areas)

Senior systems analyst

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Option to work from home, hourly wages ensure compensation for on call hours worked. Reputable company name, good for a resume.

Cons

Leadership is so out of touch with the day to day responsibilities of analysts. Decisions are made that make little to no sense, no real justification provided to try and understand reasons of decisions. Due to the timing/communication of said decisions, we are not given the tools to provide adequate customer service to our clients. General frame of mind is to “wing it” which is unacceptable in a health care environment. Feedback is encouraged but it falls on deaf ears. While we are hourly, and are compensated for on call hours, we routinely have overtime requests denied. Many you speak to will tell you that they put in OT hours that are unpaid due to their workloads and due dates, they have no other choice. Would be nice if the “Sharp Experience” they advertise so heavily was practiced within this department.
