Pros

High Salary, decent benefits, some great people

Cons

Terrible management. The people in charge and supervisors have no business in their job roles. The culture is one of fear and reprimand. You can never do anything right. You are always punished, berated, and I dare say it is emotionally abusive. They cause PTSD for the same people there to treat it in the patients. The work load is unbearable and unreasonable. There is no reward for hard work and all accomplishments are quickly forgotten. The supervisors are unstable and like to cause drama. They treat the patients terribly. They will berate them, have favorites, and make highly unethical decisions. There is no understanding of the client or the therapists lives. There is a lot of gossip and everyone will stab you in the back. No job security with people constantly quitting or getting fired for no reason. They micromanage every aspect of you life. Imagine having to take 15 minutes PTO because you will be late from traffic! It's so degrading.

Pros

Competitive pay, pension plan, friendly environment in hospital, well run, our CNO.

Cons

Staffing can be a challenge, but that's anywhere. The grids are appropriate though, it's just a matter of having the staff. That means alot. They WANT it to be well staffed.
