Pros

HCA has great pay and benefits, and provides an opportunity to witness and work in healthcare across the nation. Some of the leaders are genuine and care about employees.

Cons

Most senior leaders care about nothing but the bottom line and are so budget driven that ethically questionable decisions are made consistently and the "mission of caring and improving human life" is entirely thrown out the window if it means saving a dime or making a dollar. Work life balance is terrible and the expectation is to put in 60+ hours week in and week out. Senior leaders in PSG will do everything in their power to fly under the radar, so unless you're a mediocre employee, you'll stand out either good or bad, and you'll end up with a target on your back.

Pros

There some flexibility with scheduling and they let you pick up as many shifts as you want and pretty much your own schedule.

Cons

Very poorly managed, chronically understaffed but managers are dismissive and deny it. The support from staff is inconsistent, the staff nurses are either fresh new grads or very bitter nurses who don’t want to help and expect you to handle everything by yourself as a tech. Most nurses here are PRN’s on contracts that get floated so it’s really hard to expect consistency in the staff you work with and build trusting relationships. Management will promise to train you as a unit secretary but will never follow up. They also agree to help you get opportunities for learning and growth but refuse to follow up or forget about it altogether, despite reminders. It’s not a priority. If your goal is to grow and learn more this is not the place. It’s running on fumes at 95% of the time. Very high turnover, we struggle to keep staff. They’ll call you in to pick up when they’re understaffed with no incentive or something minimal like “swag” (some gear). Very poorly compensated and you will not be appreciated for the hard work you do. Also it took 2 months for them to get me started despite numerous attempts to reach the HR, Management etc.
