Pros

Some of my co-workers

Cons

I worked in a department within HR/Finance which is just a glorified call center and getting worse. If that is the environment you want to work in great but I was looking to put my many years of experience into play and that won't happen. Also, don't expect more than a 20 cent raise every year. And for a health care company the benefits aren't very good at all. I'm not talking about the cost (which isn't any better than other large companies) so much as the choices.

Pros

(This is for Providence St Vincent Medical Center in PDX) - staffing ratios - break nurses - ONA union - coworkers on my unit are very helpful and kind (can’t speak for every unit though)

Cons

- upper management hates the nursing union - we are short on many supplies on weekend night shifts - crappy insurance - my unit’s manager is almost never there, they’re always on vacation or working remote. This makes our manager very out of touch with the unit’s needs
