“One of the guiding principles we had when we went into this COVID-19 battle was to find partnerships—partnerships with other components of the healthcare industry, partnerships with other health systems and partnerships with governments, both local and federal. We’re proud to be part of this public-private sector partnership, and I think it’s going to do great good for the community,” said HCA Healthcare’s chief executive officer, Sam Hazen, when addressing President Trump, officials and members of the media at an announcement of the “Dynamic Ventilator Reserve” at The White House.

I have been working at HCA Healthcare full-time (More than a year)
Pros
There is a sense of collaboration and community among teams and even with management/leadership. It is obviously a company that cares for its employees from the top down - through salary, training opportunities, promotion and transfer opportunities, life-balance flexibility, healthy living options (gym, healthy cafe food, laptop treadmills, sidewalks, etc.). The "just get your work done" - no hovering/micromanaging approach is also refreshing.
Cons
I only get 13 days of PTO/year (which is all vacay/sick time together). However, it is easily made up for in work from home or remote opportunities. So, I can work on travel days or if I have to stay home (not feeling well or because my older children's schools are closed)...and I have never run out of PTO in the almost two years I have been here.
Advice to Management
Keep up the good work! The weekly (sometimes daily) communications from leadership are very helpful in knowing important events, changes, etc. within the company. The fact that you send out the blink surveys and truly want feedback from employees is nice as we then know we have a voice. Thank you for running a top notch quality corporation.
