Pros

* Steady employment (when they're not eliminating positions) * Paid time off/Sick pay * Diversity; interact with coworkers/patients of varied cultures and backgrounds * Opportunity for advancement in the hierarchy of positions within one's department * Set hours and opportunity for O/T (again, when they're not eliminating positions) * Decent cafeteria food at Winnie Palmer hospital

Cons

* Work load & services offered with less employees to do the job * Constantly short staffed * Low employee morale * Differential cuts = no incentive to stay any longer *** Loss of knowledge base due to experienced employees & "veterans" being laid off :-( * Patient care IS suffering -and in some cases, the focus is on volume rather than safety * KRONOS time keeping - requires you to live your live down to the minute otherwise you will acquire a series of "Red Boxes" which can be used to terminate employment. The punch-in/fingerprint scanner created long lines but luckily they have upgraded to badge/swipe & fingerprint * Ridiculous campus layout & BFE parking garages that don't connect to the building, forcing you to walk in the cold and/or rain. And G-d forbid you clock in one minute late... * Dirty hospital due to cutting back on housekeeping personnel

Pros

As an organization, I truly believe that Orlando Health truly means well and truly does care about its team members and the community they serve. Their benefits are very good and pay rates are competitive

Cons

I left OH after more than 16 years, and the decision ultimately came down to a deeply ingrained lack of respect for critical frontline teams. My Field Support team was responsible for supporting every merger and acquisition, every major upgrade, and the day-to-day operation of all computer equipment across the organization. Despite this, we were consistently overlooked and rarely acknowledged in large meetings, while other teams received recognition. The breaking point came during a meeting with the Senior Director of IT/CE Operations (now Assistant Vice President), when I was asked about my job satisfaction. I raised a straightforward concern: that my team’s contributions were significant and deserved the same visibility and respect as others. The response was direct and telling: "Respect? That's never going to happen,” and he continued "You are merely a commodity that is only noticed if you fail." that made the culture and leadership mindset unmistakably clear. After 16 years of dedication, I chose to leave an environment where essential work is taken for granted and respect is not given equally and is impossible to be earned.
