Pros

Easy to get in, but impossible to move up. Whatever position you start in, is the position they will keep you in. It’s like the McDonald’s of healthcare. They wouldn’t promote me so I went to HCA to improve. They would rather lose you than promote you.

Cons

Singing and dancing at important meetings No upward mobility Poor senior leadership

Pros

Management supports a work-life balance, hours are flexible, okay benefits. Good training opportunities and there is effort by management to support a good work culture. 6 weeks at 80% of pay Paternity/Maternity & Adoption leave. 401K with 6% matching. For 2 adults, we pay for Davita's Anthem BCBS healthcare plan and it is $350/month (4,700 deductible).

Cons

Payscale isn't aggressive - 1% raise each year. You also may be asked to cover other clinics temporarily without fair compensation for the extra workload.
