Ramsay Health Care Reviews

Pros

Great salary great benefits top facilities supportive management

Cons

Shiftwork can cause you to be a little rundown

Pros

Great company to work for, excellent systems and training in place, great support and structures for staff that are proactive and willing to get off their backsides. Salary is good depending your skills/department working in.

Cons

Negative staff who just come in and constantly whinge and do the "Groundhog Day". Won't motivate themselves to do anything more than what they've done on day 1 whether employed 5, 10, 15 or 25 years. Hospital was very old and it's essential equipment/plant required overhaul especially Ops Theatre space.

Advice to Management

Don't be afraid to get out on the floor with staff on the frontline, there are alot of good loyal people out there and if you don't get in amongst them and see what they do and the effort they put in then you will lose them elsewhere. Continue to push work/life balance to improve worker satisfaction & longevity. Feed the busy, hard-working Maintenance Dept.

Helpful caring good environment nice people around

Cons

Overtime working loading,very low wages and sometimes can be very stressful

Pros

My pay contract is very good and above what I would have offered myself. It is a mental health hospital so you feel like you are helping people in dire need.

Cons

There is next to no care for staff. A lot of neglect of staff wellbeing but there are no avenues to communicate that to upper management or HR. The large distance between upper management and day-to-day operations means that upper management is always keen to load more work/projects and cut staff benefits to save money. I go to work for my team, not for the business, and my team has a lot of stories of how staff are overlooked....

Advice to Management

Please please please create dedicated processes to monitor and action staff wellbeing, and create more robust policy around the procedure to care for staff wellbeing after crisis events instead of "do you wanna take an early lunch"

Pros

Friendly staff. Good training, great canteen.

Cons

To much undermined bullying and ganging up on people. Over working staff to the point of frustration and confusion. Too much is expected of one person to do. The psychological abuse I endured was unfair. I confronted them about bullying and they terminated my employment. They did not help me.

Advice to Management

Not bully your staff
