Pros

Good pay and benefits Easy to transfer locations if you move or to pick up extra shifts Opportunities to progress at any employment/education level Great local culture and talent

Cons

Corporate doesn’t really connect with the local clinics (can be a good thing too I suppose). When they do, it doesn’t seem genuine or like they know how individual hospitals operate or how the employees function on a day to day basis.

Pros

Great associates and long lasting friendships. They’re all about promoting inclusion. If you’re LGBTQ, the experience will probably be better.

Cons

Upper management is not good. Benefits are horrible. Say bye to 60% of your paycheck. Prices are astronomical and continue to rise. $150 for a wellness exam in the heart of Philadelphia is comical.
