Pros
You get the opportunity to experience healthcare on the front lines. you get to work with a variety of physicians, some of which are happy to teach and others can be extremely rude and condescending.
Cons
it’s impossible to get a shift covered at all. the hours are absurd, the shift says it starts at 6am but in order to have the noted prepped for the doctors or the pagers done in time you must get there 45-60 minutes prior which for me meant getting up at 4:30am and not being off work until 2pm. the management is incredibly unprofessional, there are constant last minute changes. it seems my supervisor is spread too thin or does not know how to handle her job in a proper way. underpaid for the amount of time and stress this job induces, you might as well just volunteer.
