Pros
The corporation appears to be financially stable.
Cons
HCA is not the environment for IT specialists. Reasons: - Payment and compensation are well below industry standards. Currently, the pay rates are so low that HCA cannot hire new employees at compensation rates which match other employers. The only new hires have been junior developers who have been given advanced/senior level titles. This is because HCA pays so low that what HCA calls senior level compensation is actually a junior level paygrade at any other company. - HCA is an old school healthcare company. HCA has no interest in or knowledge of technology or the people who make technology their career focus. - Continuous learning is touted falsely. There is no opportunity for training or career advancement. HCA FTE's use old and outdated technologies because all the applications were built using those technologies. There is no reason for HCA to invest in real training for employees when it is mired in the technological past. - Clliquish. Your future at HCA Coporate is only assured if you gladhand the correct people. Expertise is not a factor. Networking and blindly becoming a corporate cheerleader is the the route to advancement. - HCA FTE's work in older and obsolete technologies. In the rare instances when a current technology is used on a project then contractors are hired and HCA FTEs are locked out. - The post-covid culture is sour. HCA currently is forcing FTEs to come in to the office 3 days for no valid reason. And without providing the deskspace to accomodate all these people. Instead they expect FTEs to use an app called Hummingbird to compete for desks by checking out those desks.
