UPMC reviews

Communication isn't at the top of everyone's lists lately! I'd like to know who is gone. It should not be a secret. I also think that all of the UPMC "branches" should work together and not be as segregated as they seem to be. Compensation and benefits are dumb here. Considering we are working for a hospital, I think we should get good insurance... and everyone working should get it! I am busting my butt more than most, and I don't get ANY benefits, except for going to work EVERY day! You need to respect people in order to get respect.

Lack of communication from superiors; Some employees are hired in plum positions based on promises or personalities, not experience, then prove disappointing; Questionable decisions such as the dismantling of the corporate communications Web team (are they regressing instead of progressing technologically?) that kept the Web site current and growing, at the same time the site was experiencing great demand from internal departments wishing to publicize the medical services offered; The president's right-hand woman has lots of influence but tends to base decisions on her like or dislike of employees, not evidence that the presented idea will or will not work or whether the proposed idea will benefit UPMC as a whole.
