          Business Outlook

          Pros

          For being the less prominent of the three main hospitals in the area, they're fairly organized. Doctor/nurse relations are pretty easy-going with minor exceptions. Private hospital, so all physicians are contracted out from different groups. Hospitalists are a mixed bag, but a majority are well respected and knowledgeable.

          Cons

          Administration has no interest in the concerns of staff, only concerned with the bottom line. Not uncommon for this facility to cycle through a new CNO every 1-2 years, bringing in a host of unanimously unpopular changes. Does, at times, push for unsafe ratios.

            Business Outlook

            Pros

            - Educational opportunities are plentiful via web-based learning; - 180 hours of PTO is credited on day 1; - Insurance coverage is adequate; - Onboarding process (in person, not the online part) was great

            Cons

            - This hospital does not believe in calling report when patients are admitted or transferred between units; - Lowest pay in the region; The following apply to OCC, based on my experiences: - Assignments are not equitable (some nurses routinely have no admits while others have multiple admissions each shift); - No continuity with patient assignments when returning the following day; - Assignments tend to change more than an hour after you have received report, passed meds, and completed your patient assessment; - Self scheduling exists in theory but is ignored in practice; Several rooms do not have a shower and these patients must share a community shower; - Rain and cold air blows through cracks in the foundation and the windows; - Schedules are changed by management with less than 12 hours notice; - Lunch breaks rarely occur (yet staff is told to clock out whether a break was taken or not); - Supplies are rarely in stock; - Phlebotomy often calls after 0500 to inform that they are short staffed and nurses have to draw morning labs; - For a “ministry” dedicated to Jesus Christ, His name is blasphemed regularly; - Inappropriate conversations occur at the nursing station yet no action is taken when reported to the director; - Look at the pictures for Christus Health—medical equipment is piled on counters and overflowing into the sink. There is no pride in the department.

              Pros

              If you do your corporate job well you get the rewards, great benefits bonus and PTO policy. There were some really crappy employee's who didn’t work and would delegate all their work to others. And then whine to leadership. They are now gone so the rest of us are happy again

              Cons

              Honestly good people there and good mission

                Not enough staff. Too much responsibility on critical care nurses with no help. Clocks you out for lunches you don’t take.

                  CEO and executive mindset is a little antiquity in regards to WFH.

                      Do you experience that how long the hiring process would take at Thermo Fisher? I got my second interview with hiring manager at the beginning of November but I haven’t heard nothing from them. When I’ve emailed them to check in they just said that the process would be slow, no time frame. I would be able to get an offer soon from other company but work as contractor. Should I wait for Thermo Fisher?

                      Booz Allen Hamilton Recently applied and I've been referred for an interview! Any tips on interviewing with Booz Allen? And if I am being asked to complete clearance and background upfront, is this a good indicator for being hired?

                      Alex L.

                      Applied for a job a few weeks back, got a call from HR yesterday morning about an interview next week. She mentioned she'd shoot me an email with all the interview details, but so far, my inbox is empty. Assuming I'll hear from her early next week, is it normal for them to expect me to show up for an in-person interview on short notice, like couple days?
