Pros

Large organization with opportunities to advance.

Cons

They’re reacting to the current state of the healthcare system by outsourcing to India, The Philippines and other large contractors. They’re reducing benefits and have cut staffing to dangerous levels.

Pros

(This is for Providence St Vincent Medical Center in PDX) - staffing ratios - break nurses - ONA union - coworkers on my unit are very helpful and kind (can’t speak for every unit though)

Cons

- upper management hates the nursing union - we are short on many supplies on weekend night shifts - crappy insurance - my unit’s manager is almost never there, they’re always on vacation or working remote. This makes our manager very out of touch with the unit’s needs
