Pros
The pay is good, at least for my specialty.
Cons
Spending cuts and "consolidation," i.e., assigning more work to fewer people, have had a catastrophic effect on staff morale and now threaten the quality of patient care. More and more frequently, patients' needs are met with, "we don't have the staff," or "that's not on the formulary," or simply, "we don't do that." Almost all of our best young nurses have left; one was promoted twice a year, then quit!
