Pros
-Met a few good people, and still keep in touch with them. -Paid once a week, every Friday. -It was close to my house.
Cons
I was completely overworked and underpaid. Since I was hourly, they wanted to cut down on my overtime. I was told by upper management that my job wasn't that hard, and shouldn't take me that long to do. Then more work was piled on, so I had to do more work, and had less time to do it. At one point I was reprimanded for taking a 40 minute lunch at a nearby restaurant, and I was told if I wanted to take a lunch and sit down at a restaurant, I had to first ask if that was okay. Otherwise, my coworkers and I were expected to eat at our desks and work through lunch, considering the phone never stopped ringing. The nurses that we staffed were completely underpaid as well, so we ended up having to hire nurses that were under qualified. Those patients deserve better nurses and better care. We were expected to staff all shifts all the time, and hire multiple nurses every week, but they created a hiring system that made it very difficult to get people hired. Lots of red tape and frustration. It felt very counterproductive, and pointless. It has a very high turnover rate. Within 16 months of working there 7 people left, including me. After I left 2 more did as well. Benefits are not good. Very high deductible - covers nothing until the deductible is met. I was very sick at the beginning of the year and had to get a prescription. It cost me $226, and that doesn't include what I had to pay for the office visit.
