Pros

I work with a great group of physicians, nurses, and therapists.

Cons

The time off provided is horrible. For employees who work full time only get 30 days of PTO a year. So after the 8 recognized holidays you are forced to use PTO on you only get 22 days off to cover any personal days off and sick days/doctor appointments. Hardly leaves room for work life balance. The new retirement package is also abysmal. We went from immediately vested with a 15% company contribution to vested after 5 years with (1.25% x years of service) company contribution (no contribution before the 5 year mark). Work/life balance as an outpatient employee abysmal, actively looking for different jobs.

Pros

Great work life balance, Benefits are the best in the industry, great mid level management.

Cons

Very disconnected senior leadership along with poor communication and training for roles that require extremely high levels of expertise. The really good employees get leaned on heavily and over worked and burned out.
