Pros
Nurses are very good, very helpful
Cons
They own you. Sign a contract and say goodbye to your life. Load you with patients and give you all these metrics to meet so you can get your bonus, which are impossible to meet. Tried to get their adult hospitalist group to run codes on pediatrics last year (not my department) but some insight into how insane they are, just to save money, protect their bottom line. Everything is about money. Not for you. They are very nice when you start and interview though. Then you see they are snakes. The PMG doctors keep changing and they just had to rehire a whole new slew of hospitalists because they are unreasonable and cruel. The only ones that stay are the ones who are given some administrative roles, those docs are the go between the docs that work and administrators. They are the worse ones, very loyal to administration because think they will end up in administration one day. Bottom line, you have no voice and will get worked to death. Benefits are also good if you go to Palos doctors, if you don't live in the area benefits are terrible.
