Business outlook
Pros
Good pay, excellent benefits. Management goes out of its way to recognize contributions of rank and file staff, and the vast majority of the physicians don't fit the academic medical center stereotype (i.e., they don't have egos as big as the Grand Canyon and they generally treat staff with respect). Management is actually willing to publicly acknowledge its mistakes instead of hiding them from the staff.
Cons
Due to space constraints, working conditions can feel rather cramped and facilities are spread out across the city. The IT systems are mostly outdated (not cutting edge like some of Kaiser's systems), although in a few years they will be modernized.
