Pros – Good benefits, room to grow and move around the company, colleagues are nice for the most part. Option to work from home for home care and MLTC.

Cons – Management is confused at this time, does not care to retain excellent employees, too many changes in program structure at one time, IT isn't keeping up with health care personnel needs, lacking positive feedback to employees, usually only looking at the negative and what you missed on your reports.

Advice to Senior Management – Don't take on so much too soon and at one time. Your middle management needs some training.

Pros – the money and meeting new people. you get paid every week you travel a lot

Cons – you travel but its on your dime you do not get it back they will not compensate. The money is based on the hours you work the more you work the more you get paid. you get little to nothing and the supervisors are ridiculous. you have to call everyday for a case but its not permanent they come and go you waste more money traveling then you do for anything else. No room for advancement you could be in the same position forever.

I have been working at Visiting Nurse Service of New York full-time for more than 7 years

Pros – VNSNY has an excellent mission to serve all who need it, and the dedicated clinical staff fulfills this mission every day and provides high quality care. Traditionally the organization has had good work life balance but in recent years that has been less true because everyone has been asked to do more with less. There are excellent vacation benefits and solid medical, dental, and other benefits.

Cons – The biggest weaknesses at VNSNY are a lack of transparency in management, and a dysfunctional management culture that has many silos of all types (geography, program, payor) that inhibits decisivness. Projects drag on and change is slow and difficult. Compensation is weaker than it should be.
