Pros

charitable mission of the organization has always been good thing, dedication to the poor and less privileged, big complex organization

Cons

this merger between two big hospital organizations has been a real mess. Layoffs and scrambling and really not well thought out at many levels. We have watched the "strategy" and "integration" brass pad their salaries and benefits in this deal and cut convenient high salaries for themselves when the rest of the organization seems to be suffering throughout all of the region. Poor communication and lots of folks worried about their jobs but visible smugness at the top of the organization chart.

Pros

coworkers pay supporting people in community They post the same job in multiple locations because they are open to having that role exist in different locations in many cases (note the pay is also based on where as well though) Info for those reading reviews to get a picture: I'm United States, but India reviews should really be separate feedback entirely, paid less and fed daily (read location: Hyderabad).

Cons

My last management was completely toxic Had health issues and a valid claim that was ignored, only pressured Was pushed out by my management when they found out my salary Mgmt requested to submit feedback for improvement, then retaliated Since HR was outsourced and trying to protect the company from further lawsuits (I was not one but contemplated due to validity) of absolutely no help and honestly, completely inappropriate. You will be repeatedly asked to provide feedback, but it will be killed with a 1 on 1. If I had laid down and taken the angry repercussions of their poor process implementation, and their complete lack of accountability, I would still be there - I just would have transferred to another manager. Some managers and teams are more toxic than others, but favoritism and bullying are allowed and seen Overworked and under-represented but was great for several years.
