Exposing Favoritism and Uncovering Lies - STNA/CNA Rady Children's Hospital Employee Review

Pros

They pay us regularly for our services, which is essential because we need funds to cover our operational expenses and sustain our work.

Cons

Lies, backstabbing, favoritism, and subtle forms of racism cultivate a toxic workplace environment, undermining trust and morale among employees. The compensation offered here, when compared to the cost of living in San Diego—where housing, transportation, and everyday expenses are high—is entirely inadequate. I have no desire to work for an organization that, despite generating enough revenue to invest in impressive facilities and amenities, refuses to pay its staff a livable wage, leading to dissatisfaction and high turnover.

Pros

Population is great, working with children and families is highly rewarding, collaboration with outside organizations is beneficial if you have the opportunity to network in your role. Some of the teams are extremely collaborative and supportive!

Cons

Social work department is primarily toxic, condescending, and territorial. Multiple people have been bullied out over the years. Pay is low compared to Sharp and Scripps, annual raises are much lower than Sharp and Scripps (2.25/2.5 vs 4ish%), market adjustments don’t kick in until you’ve been there 2.5 years (despite inflation and bills going up within that time), and your PTO will all go to holidays.
