Pros

Great people working toward a common, substantial goal. Patient care always comes first and it shows in employee behavior. Ensures that you receive decent benefits, 403(b), etc. Fantastic flexibility. Great brand recognition and reputation in the community. State of the art facilities, system is swimming in money to invest in the latest and greatest.

Cons

Pay leaves much more to be desired compared to other large health systems. Executive compensation is over the top. Nurse unions have too much power. Top executives really love attention - to a fault. Employee satisfaction is mediocre - rewards and recognition can stand to be more frequent. Physicians are treated like celebrities.

Pros

Great teamwork, nurses have great representation from the union (UNAC-SPNN), and competitive wages (recently improved as of 2026). Fair sick time, benefits, and attendance policy. Excellent opportunities for career advancement through in-service, entity classes, tuition reimbursement, and partnership with Guild which offers some graduate degrees that are partially or completely covered depending on the program/university.

Cons

The higher levels of management have demonstrated an unrealistic perspective about staff, misrepresenting our wages in news interviews and difficult to work with when trying to resolve issues with the union. Mixed messages about the financial state of the company resulting in layoffs while simultaneously bidding on expansion projects and building multiple new, state-of-the-art facilities.
