I loved my job at Novant, but they let me go and used part time cna's to replace me. - Nurse Novant Health Employee Review

Pros

Can't think of any right now, I'm unemployed, along with over 300 other employees that never saw it coming. When I started there, they made me feel so confident and comfortable and I was proud to say I worked for Novant. Now I'm embarrassed to say I worked for them, and I'm having to try really hard to gain my self confidence back.

Cons

They don't treat their employees with compassion. But they drill it in your head that's how they want their employees to treat patients. Compassion starts with how you treat your employees. How can employees give a remarkable experience when they're constantly looking over their shoulder, afraid of being let go.

Pros

Care associates are allowed to do what CNAs do, but they do not have to have the certification. Entry level pay is the same and there are equal raises between roles each year. Part time status an average of 24 hr/week, you can work more than that and you receive full benefits, two forms of bonus every year, immediate PTO (80hrs/year). 12 or 8 hour shifts available, make your own schedule

Cons

sometimes short staffed unit, so work becomes fast-paced - if you like being active and constantly moving, this job is fun.
