Intermountain Healthcare Reviews

Current Employee – been working at Intermountain Healthcare full-time for more than 7 years

Pros – Good benefits (Health Insurance, PTO, 401K match, Flexible Scheduling)

Cons – Stagnant Pay (annual raises are non-existant), little to no opportunity for advancement.

Advice to Senior Management – Instead of spending millions to hold "employee appreciation week activities" try giving your employees who perfom well on their perfomance reviews promotions and/or pay raises.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

Current Employee – been working at Intermountain Healthcare full-time for more than 3 years

Pros – Collaborative team based environment, everyone has a voice at the table, easy access to senior leadership, well developed structure (in my group) for career planning and leaders that help you sculpt a plan to achieve your own individual goals, commitment to making employees work experiences richer and more meaningful

Cons – No forced turnover in most groups, even when there are low performers. Tougher for energetic and idea driven younger individuals to supplant incumbents. Tenure can be a real barrier to entry in some roles. Highly motivated individuals will not wait decades for their 'turn'

Advice to Senior Management – Not much honestly, I believe leadership at IH does an incredible job with the more limited resources than their 'for-profit' peers have access to. Consider strategies helping motivated and educated individuals into pathways to eventual senior leader roles without leaving the company to get outside experience and prevent some of the intellectual attrition that is occurring when people have to leave to seek opportunities. They may just not come back.

Former Employee – worked at Intermountain Healthcare full-time for more than 3 years

Pros – As listed above, the company is one of the best to work for. They have a great team atmosphere, great pay, great benefits. Good management, and it's an in demand field.

Cons – Patient billing was my field, and it is emotionally taxing. Hard to listen to people who are sick or have a sick loved one all day everyday. The other downside, it's pretty much impossible to get hired. Unless you know someone in the company who can refer you, you have little chance. It's a secret about most healthcare jobs.

Advice to Senior Management – Hire more outside people who don't necessarily have, "connections" more often. they can be just as qualified.

Pros – Intermountain offers excellent benefits, and a great working environment. It has been satisfying to know that I work for one of the top health care organizations in the United States.

Cons – Intermountain offers paid time off for full and part time employees, but you can expect to use it regularly. If you are working in patient care, you can expect to get sent home on low census.

Advice to Senior Management – Management is often made up of nursing staff. By itself, this is not a problem, but intermountain needs to invest in management training for their nurse managers. I have had some excellent nurse managers and some horrible ones.
