Your work, no matter your role, positively impacts the medical field

1 - 5.0Oct 27, 2023Team LeadCurrent Employee, more than 3 years
Pros
Great benefits, amazing pay for RNs, supportive work environment in outpatient. I enjoy the mission and feel as though we are well taken care of as employees. This is definitely the best pediatric hospital system in North Texas and consistently has high patient- and employee-satisfaction scores as well as many highly ranked programs.
Cons
Was very disillusioned by perioperative leadership in the Dallas location and continue to hear not-so-great things from colleagues still in that department. The universally disliked director was promoted to senior director, thus giving them more power and causing a huge level of dissatisfaction among clinical staff and lower-level leadership. There is quite the shake-up coming and periop staff are concerned about their job security. Despite this, I have found that I enjoy most other aspects of working for Children's. Periop itself was a wonderful department and would have been infinitely better if not for the senior leadership. My current role has taken me to another location and department and I am very happy with senior leadership in this department so far. Also, inpatient nursing is just plain hard. I would love for better staffing on the floors and know that leadership is working on it actively.

Pros
Diversity in management. They care about their employees. Families recognize the company and acknowledge how the hospital helped them. Gives you such a since of pride.
Cons
Mandatory shots even if you do not work in the hospital. They make sure you have the tools to be successful in your job.
- 4.0Oct 31, 2023Registered Nurse, BSNCurrent Employee, more than 5 yearsDallas, TX
Pros
They have good benefits here right now for maternity and paternity, pay seems above average for nurses in Dallas.
Cons
Upper leadership cares mainly about surveyors so they are constantly auditing, adding more work, creating committees which in some ways is good, but also takes away from patient care and adds more things to do

Good culture and everyone is friendly.
Cons
It is difficult to see sick children everyday.
- 5.0Aug 20, 2023Marketing SpecialistCurrent Employee, more than 1 yearDallas, TX
Pros
Working to positively promote all things Children's Health and the mission to provide the best care for our patients and families can't be beat. This is the best healthcare position I've had in my career. I work amongst truly dedicated professionals in many Marketing disciplines: Clinical Marketing, Social Media, Web, and Creative Arts. And I am a very fortunate team member with a hybrid, (mostly) work from home status.
Cons
Though my team has expanded some to share the workload, the amount of projects grows at a constant pace. The system continues to expand, and in my time here the resources and needed amount of personnel have not kept up.

- 5.0Oct 2, 2023Family Resource CoordinatorCurrent Employee, less than 1 yearDallas, TX
Pros
Feel supported by leadership and co workers. Extensive training before flying solo.
Cons
Benefits are not available for part time less than 20 hours per week. Leadership does not reflect the diversity of the community or employees.
- 5.0Jul 27, 2023Anonymous EmployeeCurrent Employee, less than 1 yearDallas, TX
Pros
Deeply rooted in the mission of making life better for all children and taking care of the team members. Ample resources and opportunities to create a sustainable employee career of growth. Substantial investment in professional development, including tuition reimbursement, coaching, and training. The chance to see our mission's impact on countless families is a fantastic reminder of the importance of my work (and others- there are amazing skills and talent here) and how the quality of our work matters.
Cons
There are cons to any organization, but I feel Children’s Health does a great job of listening to team members and addressing their top concerns.
