Banner Health Reviews

Pros

Flexibility, work to life balance

Cons

Can't think of any cons

Pros

Staff seem invested in trying to do a good job; opportunities for learning are available and accessible

Cons

Work/life balance is non-existent; use of PTO is required to cover corporate holidays (at least 8 days of the year); corporate senior leaders pay lip service to advancement, but the "old guard" is seriously out of step with current best practices; lack of transparency with staff OR patients

Pros

This hospital gets you because they have very nice equipment, a fancy pretty new tower, nice monitors, and really nice things in the new tower. While yes it's nice, the culture is terrible with a lot of burned out nurses eating their young. Would much rather work at an older hospital with nicer people.

Cons

I worked here for 2 years as a RN. One year on med surg one year in the ICU. It really depends on the culture of the floor you are on. But most often, management cares a lot more about titles, maintaining status and image more than they care about retaining their staff. The turnover here is so bad. When I worked med surg I was a preceptor at 9 months in as a new grad. They are constantly losing staff, the hospital is so massive its really chaotic and so many different teams involved. It takes forever to go to CT, get orders, page doctors because its always so backed up constantly. I will never work for Banner again- I feel like they only care about you as a number because they will always find more people to work for them. The acuity of the floors is terrible too. Med surg is pretty much all total cares/bed bound people at a 5:1 ratio.

Pros

- Great coworkers - Decent benefits - Flexible work from home options

Cons

- Pay leaves much to be desire - Negative culture - Limited movement up

Pros

Most departments are helpful with staff in personal and professional growth.

Cons

Better training and help with growth opportunities in the patient financial sector with existing employees. The pay does need to be increased by a few dollars for a cost-of-living increase. Stop making employees use PTO for required holidays off. The normal holidays like Christmas, Thanksgiving, New Years and 4th of July should not have to come out of your pto bucket and no we are not given enough to cover those days versus other employers.

Pros

Great group to work with

Cons

Schedule, pay wage is lower than at a lot of places, insurance is higher than expected

Pros

Great people to work with most of the time, culture is better than other places I’ve worked, generous PTO,

Cons

Favoritism, bad schedule, didn’t feel like there was opportunities in non clinical fields, little room to grow

Pros

There are no good reasons to work at Banner in Tucson

Cons

Leadership is TERRIBLE You are micromanaged to a point Ive never seen in healthcare. Leadership ( managers and directors ) Are the worst Ive ever seen . They are RUDE AND AWEFUL . Dont dare to bring up concerns to them . You will be targeted and quite fired eventually. Leadership does NOT care about you unless you are FRIENDS with them , then leadership has your back . So many good technologist have left because of Leadership and their ways . Banner CEO in Tucson should look at the high turnover rate over the past 5 plus years . Dont be FOOLED by their BIG BONUSES either. They are paying Big bonuses because they can not retain good employees because of how the employees are treated !!!!! Leadership act like DICTATORS , it is so unbelievable. Leadership also does not provide a SAFE WORK ENVIRONMENT! Which is extremely concerning to me. There have been too many safety concerns in the past years , Im SURPRISED THAT THE STATE HAS NOT SHUT THEM DOWN

Pros

It can be flexible at times.

Cons

There was too much bureaucracy.

Pros

Cons
