Providence does not extend their mission statement to their employees.

Pros

The only time in my 14 year experience working for Providence that the employees were treated well, was when the department was outsourced and run by companies other than Providence.

Cons

They do not treat their employees equally. They fire long time employees making more money, and keep employees making less, even if they are not meeting standard requirements to keep their jobs. They give too much power to leads, and management is not consistent with their employees. You are treated as a number, and work loads are manipulated to make it impossible to reach goals in order to keep your job. You don't know those that work around you, as you are unable to socialize in any capacity, even if you are asking work related questions.

Company is all talk. Don't drink the Kool Aid.

Pros

The large system provided access to a lot of tools and resources that made it easier to get things done. Compassion is evident throughout system.

Cons

No local control, decisions are made by disconnected regional or system executives. Limited staff training opportunities; low pay; marginal benefits. A lot of talk but very little action and follow through. Weak local management due to system overreach.

Going through a period of much needed (though poorly handled) rapid change and transition.

Pros

For decades, Providence has been an excellent place to work and make a career. That is not true at the moment, however, and it is unclear whether it will become the case again anytime soon. The core values of Providence are amazing.

Cons

Financial stress, massive and constant reorganizations, poorly executed mission critical projects. As I mentioned, core values are an important and authentic part of Providence's identity and culture... except in periods of stress, when they're quickly forgotten.
