Pros

Great health and dental insurance, and lots of opportunities to train. Good coworkers to lean on.

Cons

There are rarely any opportunities for part time positions, so most people end up stuck and aren't able to attend school full time unless they quit. A lot of favoritism and nepotism. If you bring up genuine concerns to management, they'll just spit out corporate policies instead of working on actual solutions to help employees and patients alike. Several employees have left due to burnout but management shames them for not being able to handle the huge workload.
