Pros

Inspiring history. Five Sisters of Providence brought healthcare and education to the Pacific NW over a century ago. Some Sisters of Providence still work there and are as inspiring as their history. These are some of the finest women one can ever meet.

Cons

The management of the organization is now in the hands of a group of administrators, some with great vision, others mean-spirited and self-promotional. Politics is hip deep. Back-stabbing is the norm. Though they speak of carrying out the values of the most admirable founders, they fall far short. It is also difficult for right-minded people to work in a organization that wants to take over healthcare in order to impose religious prejudices on others.

Pros

coworkers pay supporting people in community They post the same job in multiple locations because they are open to having that role exist in different locations in many cases (note the pay is also based on where as well though) Info for those reading reviews to get a picture: I'm United States, but India reviews should really be separate feedback entirely, paid less and fed daily (read location: Hyderabad).

Cons

My last management was completely toxic Had health issues and a valid claim that was ignored, only pressured Was pushed out by my management when they found out my salary Mgmt requested to submit feedback for improvement, then retaliated Since HR was outsourced and trying to protect the company from further lawsuits (I was not one but contemplated due to validity) of absolutely no help and honestly, completely inappropriate. You will be repeatedly asked to provide feedback, but it will be killed with a 1 on 1. If I had laid down and taken the angry repercussions of their poor process implementation, and their complete lack of accountability, I would still be there - I just would have transferred to another manager. Some managers and teams are more toxic than others, but favoritism and bullying are allowed and seen Overworked and under-represented but was great for several years.
