Pros

There used to be some pros. I can't say that this is the case anymore. Management has made some very poor decisions as of late and driven away everyone who made this a great place to be.

Cons

Lack of respect for employees. Lack of respect for physicians. Management is very dishonest. OR is overworked and understaffed.

Pros

Easy to get in the door if you are willing to work for next-to-nothing. They will train you well in every aspect, and then after a few years you can go work for a good company.

Cons

Have completely forgotten patient care let alone caring for their workforce, fully driven by bottom-line. Not kidding, they cancelled christmas this year.
