Pros
The experience you get working in a hospital ER, and the things you will learn from the doctors are truly indispensable, especially for someone going into the clinical side of medicine. I was fortunate to work for a hospital where the doctors highly valued the scribes, and for the most part we were VERY well treated.
Cons
This job pays NOTHING. Minimum wage, you're lucky if you get to take a break, your meals WILL be eaten at your workspace unless it is unusually slow. Honestly, you are just not compensated fairly for the amount of pressure you are under to not make mistakes.
