Pros

-Strong mission statement and values focusing on diversity and inclusion -Invests heavily in mentorship, provides ample learning and professional growth opportunities, and facilitates collaboration across diverse departments/divisions -Flexible work arrangements for most of IT division (primarily remote/work from home positions, but with optional hoteling space available) -Good healthcare and other benefits, generous paid time off program -Relatively long-term job security

Cons

-Team culture, work-life balance, and employee satisfaction vary depending on which department and management/leadership you work for -Inadequate base salaries and unwilling to reward long-term employees, sometimes offering higher salaries to new hires (often with less experience) -Ambiguous job titles lack clear differentiation and have overlapping pay scales (management can make less than their direct reports) -Seemingly non-existent standards for promotion, leading to inequities within and across departments and divisions -Convoluted performance/merit reward system, forcing management to often award the same or only slightly higher % increase to mid-level performers as those going above and beyond. Most recent cap for annual raises barely covers the cost of living -Lack of clear direction from business and IT leadership, little to no prioritization of strategic projects, constant barrage of new requests/mandatory changes causing constant burn-out

Pros

I have great unit managers who try really hard to help their staff - but it's a UPMC problem.

Cons

Terrible benefits. You have to PAY to ride a shuttle to get to work. The shuttle is often late and completely packed. I literally feel like I'm a UPMC minion walking into work to clock-in. No lunch breaks on my unit. Staff/patient ratios are very unsafe. Everyone on my unit is quitting - they are hiring new people. But what happens when all the experienced people leave and it's an entire unit of new nurses? I'm getting out as soon as I can. This summer was terrible.

Pros

I work alongside some great people

Cons

They really don't care about us-the nurses. They are offering sign-on bonuses for RN's new to UPMC. We have lost more than half of our staff in the last year. Us Nurses are finally deciding we don't have to take it anymore. They keep mentioning a "loyalty bonus" but I'll believe it when I see it.
