No job security. Andy Bagnall did 3 rounds of furloughs and 3 rounds of lay-offs then made T.V. and radio appearances to tell the public how understaffed we are. The people who volunteered to furlough and were laid off instead of brought back received no unemployment, a fact that HSHS failed to tell people when they asked us to furlough. Unemployment considers this a voluntary exit. Employees are overworked because Andy Bagnall got rid of everyone and is requiring those left to take on other jobs. This hospital is extremely nurse centric. If you are not a nurse you will receive no recognition, you stand very little chance of promotion, and you will not recieve the same benefits. The promises you are made upon hire are quickly broken and if you voice concern you are told that policy states that your responsibilities can change at any time. You must find your own coverage for vacation or you cannot go, this is policy, so you should hope your coworkers will cover you.
