Pros

Health benefits & free schooling.

Cons

Poor management, wanton neglect, discrimination, unfair pay, immense disrespect, lack of communication with coworkers (mostly outside of your department), ungrateful staff, unbalanced schedules, constant short-staffed issues, no acknowledgement for the heavy amount of work that gets done, petty reasons to fire people, no union, and numerous other problems I can't even continue to add.

Pros

UPMC is the largest employer in western pa. There are many opportunities for some. They are the first in most areas of technology and innovation and a great teaching facility.

Cons

The opportunity is there to make money and move up the coorporate ladder but in my opinion you have to know someone to advance.

Pros

Stable employer in the area. There was never a dull moment in the finance area. We were always looking for new ways to cut spending or buy something else in the Western PA region. Good exposure if you do advance.

Cons

The environment was such that those with legacy relationships are rewarded more and given greater opportunity. Very spread out and hard to feel like you are part of the organization as a whole. They were so focused on the next deal it appeared they just did not care about the organization they just acquired.
