Pros

It really gives you a chance to figure out how to develop healthy coping skills for the amount of stress you will.be put through

Cons

*wasn't given adequate time to pump (had to do it during my lunch) *at least I got lunches when I was pumping, after I dried up, no lunches became more frequent. *no breaks *constant busy work/micromanaging *regular phone calls/text messages about work from direct supervisor on days off/vacation *mean girl mentality was allowed and encouraged by middle managent. *director level managent was never around, and when present would say A on Monday then completely contridict themselves on Tuesday by saying B with a straight face. *management did not value your personal time, or expect you to have a life outside work. *was expected to come to work while contagious *low pay *refuses to adequately staff for employee/patient safety *you couldn't turn a corner without being smacked in the face with a quote on the wall about empathy, love and compassion. But you know what they say, those who preach it the loudest, practice it the least... And they were loud. *I was there for 2 years, but felt like I aged 10.

Pros

The patient population can be very rewarding to work with, and there can be lots of different job opportunities but very limited advancement with mainly lateral department shifts if a person is looking for change.

Cons

Raises are almost non-existent. The "raise" is a yearly COLA of between 2%-3%. There is no ability to talk to anyone regarding a raise, even the admin staff are fully stonewalled in the overlly corporate monolithic HR style of maintaining "fair" wages. I have worked here for several years and I actually earn less now because my "raises" do not keep up with inflation and the actual cost of living. They maintain their functionality on squeezing as much as they can out of one employer by slowly shifting more job responsibilities called "opportunities" onto you without extra pay or change in title that would get a pay increase. They look to higher level licensed staff to provide more coverage for roles that they won't hire for or cut in departments. They do "organizational restructuring" every 6 months because more staff quit, they don't replace the staff, and tell others to absorb the former FT employees job responsibilities without pay increase and being told not to go into OT.
