Pros

steady work (most of the time) good people, good pension... i guess

Cons

no rewards for hard work no benefits of working (no free parking, no yearly bonus, no performance bonus) Catering is extremely poor: expensive, poor quality food (basically just patient food but restaurant prices) You can work your socks off and do as much as you can for your patients but still get paid the same as the person that does the bare minimum

Pros

Great sense of purpose and meaning in the work. Colleagues are genuinely dedicated and supportive. Good variety of tasks day to day, and you gain a wide range of clinical and interpersonal skills quickly. Job security is a major plus.

Cons

Staffing levels are often stretched thin, which puts pressure on everyone. Pay hasn't kept pace with the demands of the role. Management can feel disconnected from frontline realities, and communication from the top down is inconsistent.
