AtlantiCare Reviews

Pros

Almost like a family people care about each other and support each other. Great camaraderie

Cons

sometimes a little tough to break into leadership as there are many 20 and 30+ year folks working there

Advice to Senior Management

Do not fall away from your belief is Servant Leadership.

Pros

I am allowed to operate with autonomy. My salary is reasonable compared to others in the field. The cafeteria food is good

Cons

The communication between managers and employess needs improvement. The setting is not comvenient to where I live. The campus is attractive.

Advice to Senior Management

Improve communication between low and mid level managers and employees. Ask employees for ways to improve operations and daily commnications.

Pros

Work/Life Balance is respected
Good Benefits
Rapidly Growing
One of the few profitable healthcare organizations in the state

Cons

Career advancement opportunities are almost non-existent in some areas
Too much reliance on consultants
Raises are very poor
Education background is not as valued

Advice to Senior Management

Offer more competitive salaries and raises compared to not just healthcare, but other local organizations We are going to start losing our top talent, and to a point we have already lost some good people.

The education offered in leadership is great, but their should be a plan with it to allow that person to be mentored and move into a leadership position once that training is complete.

Pros

It is a very profitable company and offers job security.
The people I worked with were great, very hard working and reliable.
That's about it.

Cons

Over worked, too much middle management which does not have a clue. Not very safe in the city. Some employees show no respect for others. Cut corners everywhere they can. You know I am getting sick thinking about this place again, so I will stop here.

Advice to Senior Management

Get rid of middle management and use their salary to get the grunts some help. Also just because someone has worked there for 15 plus years does not necessarily mean they are qualified for a management position.

Pros

Great Benefits. Cares for its employees.

Cons

No opportunities for growth/career advancement. Hire from outside, not internally.

Advice to Senior Management

More training needed.

Pros

for social work entry level jobs, atlanticare pays the most in the area. good benefits package which usually starts immediately.

Cons

position was stressful in itself so it wouldn't matter what company you were working for. staff had good management support, but was understaffed.

Advice to Senior Management

mental health workers deserve higher pay and as much support as possible. the minimum required staff is really understaffing a department.

Pros

Everyone is friendly. There is always help available when you need it. Schedules are very flexible if working pool. Work is not very difficult.

Cons

Hard to get on a personal level with coworkers or patients. There are many rules and regulations regarding the sharing of information.

Advice to Senior Management

The orientation for this position should be shorter. Little is learned through the long, tedious orientation. This part could definitely be taken out.

Pros

-Benefits (health/dental insurance, 403B) are the best! Payroll deduction for low cost legal advice, Supplimental Life Ins., Healthcare Spending Account.
-Job security. Two hospitals, satellite facilities for Urgent Care after hours, Behavioral Health, Childcare, Women's health, Life Center (gym) and Obesity clinic. We just broke ground for the newest Cancer treatment center.
- Atlanticare is always looking for ways to grow.
- Pays up to 80% of the education costs for job-related education classes.
-Wellness/ preventive illness is a mission of AtlantiCare, an outreach for the community and my family.
-Employee healthcare, the utmost importance.

Cons

There are no downsides. We are constantly growing and employee physical and mental health is taken quite seriously.

Advice to Senior Management

The Respect in the Workplace seminar was helpful. I think we are on the right track toward better communication.
