Pros

The only pros are the wonderful coworkers. When I say coworkers this means workers that actually work the floors & take care of patients! This excludes management & administrators, they are to busy having meetings & meetings about meetings & staying in their offices.

Cons

Very top heavy in managers & administrators. Clueless as to what goes on. No appreciation ever shown to employees who work their butts off. Novant can't even show appreciation to employees @ Christmas. Managers & administrators reap nice bonus @ Christmas. Employees of every other dept received nothing!!!!!! The Doctor offices under Novant are also terrible!! Novant forces Doctors to spend only 15 minutes with patients & if they go over the 15 min or not see enough patients during the day then the Doctor loses pay. No focus on patient care in their hospitals or offices. Many Doctors are & have left because of this!

Pros

Good pay, benefits, time off, and they strive hard to make employees feel heard. Not afraid of change or doing something different. Definitely a lot of effort in turning feedback into action.

Cons

Corporate smothers the smaller offices. Way too big and everything is way too detailed to where nothing is easy to find or understand (policies change almost weekly). IT is outsourced and not helpful. Everything is cheap. Employees feel like pampered cattle. "Float" is only for bigger offices and isn't guaranteed. They will short staff you in a heart beat and tell you your burn out is "growing pains". Raises and bonuses are pathetic. Better compared to PHC, but when the CEO earns 6+ million every year and all we are given is $400 bonus and a 1% raise because we didn't reach impossible goals = not fair. 8-5 M-F is not ideal for healthcare. Bring back more Friday at noon hours.
