Pros

The work you will do here is undeniably rewarding. I am a huge advocate for organ and tissue donation. Their mission statement is amazing. I am so proud to have worked in this field. Health benefits are great, and there is much opportunity for overtime.

Cons

Whoever wrote the 5 star raving review from 10/16, is probably from Clinical Management at NJSN. They are terrible to work for. They believe in working people to the bone, while they bully, belittle and micromanage. If you are going work here, prepare to be made to feel guilty when you want to take vacation, or if you get sick. God forbid they found out you left the state (this includes going into Manhattan!) while on your scheduled day off- they WILL take an ETO day from you. Want to get away on your weekend off somewhere out of state? Forget it. Clinical Management demands you use vacation time for days that you were already NOT on the schedule, because “it’s your responsibility to be available to the company 24/7.” Their mindset about work-life balance is completely deranged. After many years with the company, I left due to the lack of respect and the bullying culture. This is the type of job, because of the emotional work, the odd and long hours, that you need a supportive boss. You will not get that at NJSN. The turnover rate is crazy, and management has somehow convinced themselves that staff resign because they "aren’t committed" or they "weren't the right fit" (see review below). I've seen some wonderful, smart and committed health care professionals walk out the door because they couldn't take it from management any longer. The current staff have been driven so mad, that some of them have taken temporary leave for mental and emotional reasons. It's absolutely crazy that management gets away with this kind of treatment of their staff! I wonder when the board and CEO will finally make some serious necessary changes to their senior clinical staff. They have completely destroyed the work culture at NJSN. This could really be a wonderful place to work if it weren’t for management.

Pros

Very rewarding mission to be a part of. We work to save and enhance lives through organ and tissue donation and see first-hand every day the impact that our organization has on people and families. Extremely rewarding. Management is forward thinking and supportive of new ideas. There is a very strong team vibe here that I like. Benefits are great and there is a ample time off.

Cons

We work hard here and expectations are high for everyone but in the end, it's about saving lives.
