Pros

I was offered a very good salary. Hiring manager very patient in offering me the position until I got my Illinois RN license restored, which took 2 months. Orientation to this position is excellent with online modules and at-the-shoulder training.

Cons

The recruiter made a major error. She during her initial contact with me in October she told me there was a $15,000 sign on bonus with this position. We discussed this several time over the 2 months as she worked with me to secure this position, and each time she said there was a bonus. When the offer letter came there was no mention of this bonus. I called, texted, and emailed the recruiter so I could get this cleared up. I never heard from her. I was finally contacted by the hospital HR rep who told me that this position did not have a bonus attached because it was not a bedside RN job. Suffice to say, this was very disappointing. I wanted to work in this field, so I did not turn down the job. I just wished the recruiter knew what she was talking about because I was planning to pay off my car loan with this money.

Pros

No micro-management, which is outstanding. Decent PTO. I think they’re trying to retain staff but simply do not understand the market.

Cons

Very poor communication, no structured, professional training. No department meetings, huddles or comrade. There doesn’t seem to be any motivation or desire for employee enrichment or advancement. Pay is embarrassing low and there is no excuse for this.
