Pros

Has a good reputation for baby deliveries

Cons

Nurses are not appreciated. Nurses week was celebrated on Friday (last day of the week) at 2pm, with a Popsicle. There is NOT a chief nursing officer or a chief medical officer. 1 out of 10 employees could point out CEO/CFO in a line up. Three campuses that only share the Northside name. Most physicians are community physicians and therefore are not invested in making the hospital better. The electronic medical record is a little better than HORRIBLE. There is high turnover and high patient to nurse ratios. Pay is decent for new hires but very few raises for employees that have been with the company for any length of time. Managers get promoted not on qualifications but rather they have been in a position for a long time.
