Pros

The UC system still has an excellent pension. Work-life balance is okay. Patients enrolled in research will get good care--just as long as they don't get sick during an academic holiday.

Cons

Union supports the most incompetent employees. Physicians are interested in research and patient care is not their priority. There is a lot of cronyism, 3 people I knew were promoted who dated their direct manager.

Pros

Great, conscientious nurse colleagues who love nursing and value excellence. Good pay with yearly raises. Flexibllity in scheduling, good benefits including retirement. Lots of opportunities to learn new things and participate in hospital wide activities if you are interested. Referral center for a large area, so patients come to us from all over and appreciate our care and professionalism.

Cons

Big institution. Many requirements such as hourly rounding sometimes seem unrealistic and inflexible. Adversarial relationship between unions and management is disheartening when contract negotiations come up.

Pros

It's a prestigious place to work to gain clinical experience.

Cons

It's sometimes hard to work with other departments due to politics. This may not be in the best interest of patient care.
