Pros

The company is stable, has good benefits overall and has allowed me the ability to grow professionally without having to sacrifice a full home and family life.

Cons

Work from home/remotely opportunities seem to be a missed opportunity for UHS, relative to todays corporate environment and the technologies available to make it feasible. This is one of the places that the stability mentioned in my "Pros" list, is also a point of hindrance. The wheels of change seem slow to move here.

This Hospital is TOXIC!

Pros

If you're lucky, your peers will possess the common sense and integrity necessary to help make up for the lack of ethical standards exhibited by so called "leaders..."

Cons

Where to begin...? -Complete disregard for staff safety and patient well-being. -Staffing to census rather than patient needs. -UHS is rotten from the top down, but will quickly fire those on the bottom to save their own skin. -Ethics are a sad joke around here. Doctors will withhold the proper psychiatric and medical treatment necessary in order to maximize the stay of the patients. Nursing supervisors and staff comply in fear if their livelihoods. After all, empty beds = zero profit. -injured on the job? Get ready to be manipulated into begging your doctor to medically clear you to return to work. There's promise of a contingency for such an event (paid time off, fmla), but loss prevention and HR are very skilled at saving UHS money, and will find creative ways to disqualify you from due rehabilitative methods. -Substandard wages.
