Pros

Very good salary and PTO time. Everyone on the team is nice and work well together. The IT department kind of feels like it has a small company culture, despite it being part of a huge organization.

Cons

Health insurance is very expensive. You wouldn't expect that when this is a health care company, not sure why. HR department are not-sees, but everyone has mastered how to avoid / hide from them, just have to learn that from your direct coworkers, it's not hard.

Thank you for sharing your positive 5-star review and for the kind words about your colleagues. We're glad that comes through. As an academic health system, research is central to who we are. The work you and our research teams do every day touches patients and communities across the region and beyond. Thank you for being part of Penn State Health.

Pros

Mission-focused Some patients and employees are nice Good benefits

Cons

Crowded and Busy. In the cancer institute the lines for check-in went out the door and it seems like everyone forgets their manners in that place. Very little pay for dealing with so many angry patients
