Pros

Worked on observation as a patient care texh. Loved my nurses. Best teamwork spirit I've ever worked with. Almost always had the tools I needed to do my job. Everyone is pretty friendly.

Cons

The last review I had really made me angry. My manager had nothing but good things to say about my job performance. Also said she never got complaints about me. However, I lost points (they said it was hospital wide, which doesn't make it any better) because the hospital didn't meet retention goals for employees. I also lost points because I didn't meet my personal goal. When I was hired I wasn't given one. So I lost points for not meeting a goal I wasn't given. In the end, I was given a 20 cent raise. I thought the whole process was pretty demoralizing. I heard from people who've been here a while that banner used to give Christmas bonuses. My bonus last year was a $5 gift certificate to the cafeteria. When hired, nurses are told thathat the max patients they will ever get would be 5 but that 4 should be the normal. They are almost always maxed out at 5. There are supposed to be 3 techs to a floor. But there are almost always only 2. So we usually have 15 patients to ourselves. Which can be exhausting. Also they only give away one scholarships per year. Sucks when almost everyone i talk to is in school trying to better themselves so they can get a better job in the company.

Pros

This review isn't about the pros of working for Banner Medical Group.

Cons

The last couple of years with BMG, many current and former leaders have encountered ongoing challenges related to the senior leadership team's (Ops Directors and above) behavior and accountability. Expectations and disciplinary actions are not applied consistently, and when disciplinary actions are applied, it is retaliatory for speaking up about these inconsistencies. This has created a culture of distrust and fear between the clinic leadership teams and Ops Directors/Senior Ops Directors. It also goes against Banner's "If you see something, say something" campaign. The HR team has also contributed to the growing fear and distrust by not following their own guidelines, and by the ERC's showing their bias against leaders through their tone of voice when talking with you, baseless accusations against leadership, and approving corrective actions that are vague and missing specific details of the incident that someone is being written up for. It also raises concerns amongst clinic leaders when multiple leaders bring forward the same concerns and issues about Ops Directors over a lengthy period of time and we're told, "we couldn't corroborate your concerns." And when multiple leaders provide ample evidence (Chronological Management Records, Teams chats, email chains, etc.) to disprove these false accusations and you're still placed into corrective action, the word corruption starts to become applicable.
