Pros

Great benefits overall - health, vacation, 401k match, cash pension plan, etc. UPMC has also invested heavily in new technology and, if you are working in that area, you will get exposure to the latest and greatest.

Cons

Large size makes one of the hardest parts of the job managing the size and complexity of the organization, including it's very convoluted and ever-changing management structure and hierarchy. The politics of the place are oppressive. Perhaps not so much so on the clinical side, but for those working in Information Services/IT, it is a constant battle ground. There are plenty of good people here, but unfortunately there are many ruthless ones as well, and all too often the latter get their way at the expense of the company and it's good employees.

Pros

Great benefits. Company offers PTO accrual from day one.

Cons

Very "clique-ish"....you are either "in" or not. No such thing as Diversity here, especially in Corporate.

Pros

Good benefits and some challenging projects. Good benefits and some challenging projects. Working with the doctors in real world patient care is very interesting and worthwhile.

Cons

Management in Information Systems STINKS! They are a cliché, if you get accepted in the cliché and "Do as you are told" and subscribe to "When we want your opinion we will give it to you" then you are OK. However, cross the line and try to think on your own and you will immediately be facing a "Performance Improvement Plan" and then be shown the door. If you are an experienced IT professional then take a pass on this company or you will be very frustrated.
