Consistently Understaffed

Pros

They are one of the highest paying hospitals in the area. They offer free employee access to fitness equipment and classes. Covered (garage) employee parking so you never have to walk in the rain.

Cons

One of the biggest challenges met on a regular basis is inadequate staffing leading to higher nurse:patient ratios. There is frequently a lack of basic necessary equipment. These issues combined with the company's focus on profit generation and throughput timing equal an extremely frustrating work environment. The perception among many is that "numbers, not patients" are what really matters.

Pros

HCA has unrivaled reach and scope in healthcare which means that when you can make improvements, you can really make a difference at a national level. HCA has a very steady environment where moderate competence can ensure prolonged employment and eventual career advancement.

Cons

The size of HCA combined with the particularities of the healthcare industry make progress and improvement difficult. In addition the steady work environment leads to lesser skilled individuals remaining and eventually being promoted while more skilled individuals leave for more progressive organizations. Overall, entrenchment can be a big problem.
