Pros

None Currently. Nope. Don't bother. Many other places in the country to live and work. Asheville is nice but so are lots of other places.

Cons

Top heavy management. Rampant cronyism especially in administration at all levels. Self insured, so employees left without choice of practitioners to use for their own healthcare. Poor benefits in terms of salary or hourly pay.401K matching is bare minimum after 1 year of employment. High turnover.Increasing use of traveler/locums personnel. Upper administration known for autocratic style and unwillingness to negotiate. Expectation of unreasonable amount of availability/on call obligation.

Thanks for your input. As a long time employee of Mission, we appreciate the work you contributed for your 10+ years. Perhaps the offerings were different then, but currently Mission provides excellent benefits, which can be found online at: http://missionandme.mission-health.org/total-rewards/. We have almost eliminated our Traveler staff, and are dedicated to being a Great Place to Work and Practice, a designation we were honored to receive recently!

Pros

Great nurses, resilient community, many leadership growth opportunities, large hospital with many specialties, the only level 1 trauma center in WNC.

Cons

The hours are very challenging. often 5am to 6pm M-F. No additional compensation for extra hours, nights, or on-call weekends. You must love the work, and have minimal need for work-life balance to enjoy working here.
