please stop favoring certain folks and work on retention; and when an employee smiles and say hello please have the decency to speak without a frown or say hi in a very low whisper

Support Middle Management

Advice to Senior Management

need new leaderships

Pros

Provided match on 401K, public transportation options provided for downtown workers

Cons

Lack of managers with technical skills managing the EHR groups, allowing clinical and not technical people to make system decisions, no HR support or help when needed, top management completely out of touch with day to day issues and problems.

Advice to Senior Management

Open your eyes and stop allowing friends and buddies to manage teams instead of competent technical experts. You claim patient lives are most important, but it sure doesn't seem so within your BIS group.

Pros

Growing, learning, and expanding. Looking for self-starters!

Cons

Facing same challenges as all healthcare systems are.

Advice to Senior Management

Invest in mentorship

Pros

For the experience that could be obtained if given the opportunity

Cons

Management shows favortism to certain employees and, if you are not favored or disagree with them, your chance of moving forward with the company will be jeopardized.

Advice to Senior Management

Have integrity and do not use your position and personal opinion of an employee to keep that employee from moving forward within the company as long as the person is doing their job to the best of their ability. Become and stay professional at all time and do not stop growth in someone else's career.
