CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Most colleagues are talented, hard working, and driven to deliver to patients

Cons

Incompetent leadership in multiple departments that follow unethical practices, bullying behaviors, and demand work outside business hours. The culture is beyond toxic with inability to understand current market needs and ability to implement process improvement. New systems are added everyday that continue to be ineffective. Senior Leaders are incapable and unqualified for their roles, resulting in poor business decisions and blame on top talent to be micromanaged and overworked.

Business Outlook

Pros

pay is fair, benefits are good, pension plan a plus

Cons

awful culture fueled by inept management, overly competitive work environment, thin promotional opportunities unless politics favor you . managers are overtaxed with work and cannot (will not) provide development opportunities. Malvern location is not a place I would recommend- many departments have people retention and morale issues.

Pros

Hmmm, thinking. Perhaps the cafeteria could potentially be a pro. Not sure I can honestly find another thing that I would feel right about listing here just to fill the 20 word minimum for this field.

Cons

Some serious management and accountability is missing in the specific group I worked with. The team ran the show and it was constant obtuse complaining and finger pointing. Most of your time is being spent in meetings trying to appease and de-ruffle feathers rather than getting work done.
