Pros
Good PTO, sick hours, stock purchase benefits, 401k matching, decent place to start as a new grad RN. Able to move through floors through experience and timing (such as med/surg, IMC, ICU or ER). Seniority and loyalty pays off the longer you stay at the company
Cons
For-profit hospital that only protects its profits and not staff or patients. Hospital equipment is old while they go off and build new hospitals and facilities. Non-unionized and hospital abuses staff by pushing unsafe nurse-patient ratios which diminishes quality of care. Staffing and HR depts constantly giving attitude to nursing staff. Doctors disregard nurses and intimate them. Management of course takes their side. Nurses are not highly regarded here, are basically the scapegoat if anything goes wrong. Erratic timing of salary increase. Blatant use of favoritism.
