        Pros

        working to help children is a big up. acquire PTO fast. they take entry level people. for the most part everyone is friendly and willing to help in any way they can

        Cons

        always understaffed, we are three people short at the moment and was told no one can work any overtime as it exceeds the budget even though they have 3 more salaries budgeted that are not being used. also there's a lot of "I've been here for (insert years) so you can do everything"

          Business Outlook

          Pros

          Children’s hospital has great core values and typically demonstrates the values they speak about. There is multiple opportunities for different pathways of career advancement. They do complete market adjustments for each discipline. I have also seen a lot of growth recently with diversity and it appears to be impacting the climate. They do value and take employee feedback.

          Cons

          Market adjustments for salaries do come about every 3 years so depending on timing you may see this quickly or not. It is a large organization so it is easy to be overlooked for promotions if you do not speak up about your accomplishments. It can take some time to see improvements made related to employee feedback, more than likely due to size of company.

                        Pros

                        Number 1 pediatric hospital in US, diverse, can wear any scrubs, new medical equipment and technology, Voalte phones are awesome, training/orientation at your own pace with productive meetings, and employees are very open and have department events outside of work.

                        Cons

                        Pay is poorer compared to nearby hospitals and has limited bonus opportunities. The hospital is huge and can be difficult to navigate-- especially if you work in the G building. May struggle to work with class schedule if you're in school-- be sure to sit down with manager and explain or even give a copy of your schedule. Other PCAs in my unit (ED) tend to be younger (18-21), which can be great, but some act very young and can be very cliquey. Many preceptors have only been out of orientation for as little as 2-3 months (with minimal preceptors for nurses). Learning environment can feel very closed off.

                      Is it bad interview etiquette to ask about salary expectations WHEN the recruiter fails to bring that up in our screener? I did it so we could ensure alignment and the recruiter said she ‘usually waits to do that after the first call’ 🙄
