Pros

This company does have decent benefits and for the position that I worked in I was a member of the union which meant I got yearly pay raises. There was room for advancement to a certain extent and each time I transferred I was offered more money.

Cons

Like any company there are cliques. The con of working for a union, or one of them, is that everything goes by seniority so if someone worked there longer they would get first choice for transfers and time off.

Pros

I really enjoyed the patients I worked with and a lot of the other providers as well. The new hospital is really nice.

Cons

The CEO is corrupt. You will feel like a number at Essentia. Advanced practitioners have no say in their job. They can change your job duties at any time. They can send you to other locations at any time. And do you have no say in this. The physicians definitely have a better position than any of the advanced practitioners. They are treated a lot better by management. There’s a reason the advanced practitioners voted to unionize. There were plenty of nurses that were making the same amount of money as advanced practitioners there. And the nurses had great locked in benefits with being unionized. Where advanced practitioners would only get two weeks paid for maternity leave.
