Pros

Benefits, coworkers, learning opportunities, 3 day work weeks

Cons

LPN Med/Surg - Springfield, TN This company blatantly protected h0mophobia, transph0bia, religious discrimination, s3xist, and ableist behavior at the hands of its Med Surg DON. This company also denied me my labor union representative, which is illegal. When I went to HR about my concerns about my DON being discriminatory the first time, they protected him. When I went to HR about my concerns the second time, with a labor union rep, I was denied access to HR completely. When I contacted the Ethics line about my concerns, I was told that unless I gave names for my coworkers, they couldn't do anything despite screenshots and proof being submitted. On multiple occasions, my DON personally attacked my s3xual 0rientation, autism, atheist beliefs, and made s3xist decisions that affected me and my other female coworkers, yet I was the one who was punished with being forced out of the company. This company also continuously disregards safe ratios and puts its employees at risk constantly. Typical ratios for med surg at this hospital is 1:6 regardless of acuity. When you stand up for yourself and your license based on safety, you are threatened by management. Please, if you are anything other than a typical wh!te man, do not work for this hospital. They do not care about you and they will not protect you. Their Ethics department is a joke. Their management is a joke. They would rather lose you than work with you, even though they are grossly understaffed. High Turnover!

Pros

There some flexibility with scheduling and they let you pick up as many shifts as you want and pretty much your own schedule.

Cons

Very poorly managed, chronically understaffed but managers are dismissive and deny it. The support from staff is inconsistent, the staff nurses are either fresh new grads or very bitter nurses who don’t want to help and expect you to handle everything by yourself as a tech. Most nurses here are PRN’s on contracts that get floated so it’s really hard to expect consistency in the staff you work with and build trusting relationships. Management will promise to train you as a unit secretary but will never follow up. They also agree to help you get opportunities for learning and growth but refuse to follow up or forget about it altogether, despite reminders. It’s not a priority. If your goal is to grow and learn more this is not the place. It’s running on fumes at 95% of the time. Very high turnover, we struggle to keep staff. They’ll call you in to pick up when they’re understaffed with no incentive or something minimal like “swag” (some gear). Very poorly compensated and you will not be appreciated for the hard work you do. Also it took 2 months for them to get me started despite numerous attempts to reach the HR, Management etc.
