Pros

Love my coworkers, doctors, and immediate supervisor.

Cons

I’ve been in my field for 18+ years. I excel at my work. Requested a raise at my 90 day meeting (a lot of companies will comply). Was told “kudos to you for asking but no”. Asked again at my 1 year review. 6 months later it’s still “in the works”. Already told I’ve been approved for a 10% raise in pay. I haven’t seen a dime of it. Upper management is extremely dismissive about it. HCA does not seem to care about their employees well being. The pay is not competitive at all. If you need a job to survive, don’t apply here.

Pay CAP too low

Pros

When Hurricane Harvey hit Houston, HCA Healthcare was there to help employees get through it.

Cons

Our hospital was taken over by HCA Healthcare last year. We were just told about our raises for this year, and I’m already at the pay cap for my position. I’ve only been working at this hospital for five years and took a low salary when accepting this offer. Now I can’t believe that I’ve already hit a pay cap. I planned on working at this hospital for another 20 years, now I don’t know what to do. Be cautious when working at an organization owned by this company, their salaries are really low.

Pros

HCA has great pay and benefits, and provides an opportunity to witness and work in healthcare across the nation. Some of the leaders are genuine and care about employees.

Cons

Most senior leaders care about nothing but the bottom line and are so budget driven that ethically questionable decisions are made consistently and the "mission of caring and improving human life" is entirely thrown out the window if it means saving a dime or making a dollar. Work life balance is terrible and the expectation is to put in 60+ hours week in and week out. Senior leaders in PSG will do everything in their power to fly under the radar, so unless you're a mediocre employee, you'll stand out either good or bad, and you'll end up with a target on your back.
