Pros

Compensation and benefits are good.

Cons

This company is sinking fast. They employ and promote the incompetent and ignore anyone who wants to make improvements or even suggests that something could be done more efficiently or more streamlined. Everything takes 10 times longer than it needs to due to restrictive, antiquated policies and constant turn-over and re-creating the wheel. They have no concept of what it really is like to care for patients and do not utilize the expertise of either external or internal collaborators. The culture is not at all nurturing and is down right adversarial and punitive to those who are new and not part of the dead wood that continues to implement non-sensical restrictions through repeated useless meetings that go nowhere except backwards. Stay away from this company.
