Pros

They pay for your vehicle payment, insurance and benefits are good, stock options awarded are nice even if you did not meet budget (EBITDA). This does not mean that their salary at the CEO level is comparable to other companies. Other comp. are paying $30-$60k more. They are doing well financially. Been around for 35 plus years and know how to make $ (stock quote is above 110 now).

Cons

They manage you on budget and FTE's like it was the end of the world. Every conversation with leaders is about filling beds at every cost even if you can't mange them = increased census, not patient care. Thus, ethics are in question. Clinical and Risk folks don't help, they give you more action plans then the federal govt. Horrible model of support. Just ties your team & your time up. Last, but not least, indoctrination and micro-management at Corp level. If you do not drink the UHS “kool-aid” your toast. In other words, you have to do exactly what they say, or they consider you a "problem," or "rogue" and they will walk you out (eventually). So, get in line. If top corp likes to keep their friends around and if you are friends with top dogs, then you are fine.

Pros

Everyone seems nice, so far Salary is decent Flexible work arrangement with a hybrid of onsite/work from home

Cons

This is my first week with this company and first impressions indicate an extreme lack of diversity. Senior leadership consists of 13 people - All Caucasian, 11 males and 2 females. In my department of 14, I'm the only person of color. To further prove my point, Dr. King's birthday is not observed as a holiday.

Pros

Coworkers on units work as a team. Constant working and on your feet full 12 hour shifts. Unit staff sticks together to work as team to desperately cling on to some kind of routine and structure in such a stressful environment.

Cons

Administration has unrealistic expectations of unit staff. No consideration for staff safety. Horrible staff to patient ratio.
