Pros

Support of Division peers. Established maternal-child programs. Back up of corporate safety initiatives. HCA likes to promote from within and has a strong CNO development program..

Cons

Benefits are substandard. Heavy, heavy focus on productivity, sometimes to the exclusion of other important clinical issues. Difficult to recruit and retain staff because we are among the lowest paid hospitals in the market.

Abusive workplace run by ambitious managers and leaders with low integrity. Unfair and disrespectful environment.

Pros

Pay is at market. Benefits are fine.

Cons

Bullying by managers and physicians is rampant. Anyone who speaks up or complains will be unceremoniously fired. The reputation in the community, if you ask around, isn't stellar. I've worked for several healthcare companies and will never work for this one again.
