Sodexo Reviews

minimal growth or salary increase

-daily productivity -unhealthy level of expectations, 12-18 patients per day, + expectation of heavy food service involvement doing meal rounds, tray audits/test trays, maintaining formula stock on critical care units (we have 3) -facility food service director is overly involved and heavily micromanages (despite her not being a dietitian) and unsupportive or understanding of RDs. -aren’t given the resources or tools needed to best do our job. No laptops/wows to use in rounds, 1 RD desk collapsed 6 months ago with no replacement. Hard to get HCA to pay for anything like this, especially right now as they’re trying to maintain and increase drastic monetary cuts. - HR is remote and not very accessible or helpful. -HCA Healthcare is the facility and is a terrible organization to be work for. It’s very clear profits are put first, not employees or patients. Patients put at risk with Intentional short staffing, putting brand new fresh out of school nurses straight into critical care despite unit leaders pleadings, as a result losing unit directors left and right lately, facility is falling apart (no hot water and got shut down several days by the health department), air conditioning dysfunctional, rats, plumbing issues and ceiling leaks, Meditech is an. absolutely horrible outdated EMR. -Sodexo career ladder is poorly executed. Requires an extensive process and doesn’t guarantee a boost in salary or benefits. Staff are better off leaving to advance career than stay and navigate career ladder. - Entire division of HCA is discontinuing Sodexo Contract to insource food and nutrition services, and we either onboard with HCA, move to a new position within Sodexo (no Sodexo accounts in current region after contract lost) or seek new employment -working for HCA will cut PTO nearly in half so new employment is the best option as it was really the main “pro” of this position. -in the Houston area, HCA is the hospital that is for profit and that shows. Employee and patient experience better at any other hospital chain.
