Pros

I get to work part time while attending school. Working with RN's has helped me see the bigger picture of working in the ICU and Cath Labs

Cons

Even working pat-time, they want you to be available three days a week. They may or may not schedule you to work these day, almost like being on standby but not getting paid at all for it.

Pros

Straightforward with their expectations of you leading up and going into the academy.

Cons

There is no room for error. If you’re not in good physical condition and think you’ll improve while in the academy you’re wrong. You need to already be in good shape or they will run you ragged for it. It’s either you’re ready or you’re not and if you’re not then they will make it as miserable as possible to test you and either you quit or they fire you.
