Pros

The money was good, but the hight price of SF balances that out.

Cons

Where do I start: It’s like UCSF scrapes the BOTTOM of the barrel for their next manager. The managers are completely toxic and discriminate against protected classes of employees. When you do complain you meet with the Office of Prevention of Discrimination and Harassment where NOTHING is done. I literally saw the WORST in nursing and have NO idea how this hospital has magnet status. Actually I do understand: it seems the ANCC only cares about money and not about patient outcomes or nurse satisfaction. If the organization pony’s up the money then they get the certification and designated as a “magnet” facility. This organization was by and far the WORST place I have ever worked.

Pros

Working at UCSF Health is a stable job: you clock in, take a lunch break, and clock out. It looks great on a resume, and you can get a better title externally after. The skills obtained are translatable across other industries.

Cons

Workers who have stayed at UCSF for over 2 years are life'ers, and hate to do anything new or different. They are also very risk averse, and will throw other people under the bus to save their reputation and chance at a pension. This leads to workers being very territorial and passive aggressive. Management has no backbone because they are also looking out for themselves and thoroughly under qualified for their positions. Don't expect any professional courtesy or support from others. Management personally are on their way to retirement and hate each other; the lack of respect and professionalism trickle down, so the typical tenure of a Privacy staff member is only 3 months due to the toxic and hostile work environment. The pay is minimal, and the pay discrepancy between staff members is vast.

Pros

Great benefits, access to public transportation, work with a handful of people who are solid, did I say great benefits, onkybwhen handled by competent reps.

Cons

Uncontrolled, vicious favoritism, singling out employees for violations when others blatantly do the same thing. Immediate supervisors who share their employees personal and confidential info to co-workers/their friend. Unprofessionalism, Not all employees are subjected to follow unit rules, many instances of intimidation and humiliation in front of fellow employees. Complaints to upper management for help go unanswered. Hostile work environment.
