Pros

When I started 20 years ago it was a great place to work! You could see the values of the Sisters of St. Joseph daily. It was great when one of the sisters came by the office. The employees were appreciated and there were fun activities we did for the employees to thank them for the hard work we put in.

Cons

As time went on and management changed the values of the organization weren't as important as when I started. It was even told to me that the values didn't pertain to the worker bees, only management. Once St. Joseph "merged" (was taken over) by Providence Health Care everything started going down to tubes. Employee no longer mattered, deadlines were changed and they start laying people off. More people were laid off from California, Southern California than any of the Providence employees. They are now in the process of moving many functions (Accounting and Accounts Payable) out of the country to save money but the CEO got a huge raise. I'm so grateful that they laid me off a couple of years ago, it was a blessing for me.

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.
