Pros

PH&S is a top notch healthcare provider organization with exceptional patient care and state of the art equipment.

Cons

This review is focused on Admin only. I have never written a critique about an organization before but seriously compelled to do so about this one to bring awareness and prevent a qualified and otherwise professional job seeker from switching positions and then later on regretting it: • there is lack of respect and professionalism in this admin support department located in north end responsible for preparing capital and operating budgets • leadership exists only in title [those that have leadership titles are warm bodies because they are incompetent at leading] • bullying exists [those that do it are also leaders] • leadership plays favorites – For example, select members of the team are chosen to participate in closed door meetings in which topic should be shared with entire team • open door culture does not exist –leadership spends majority of time with doors closed • aggressive and bullying employees are blindly allowed to sabotage other coworkers • no goal setting nor professional development occurs – [goes back to incompetent leadership] • leadership is critical to a fault yet provides no input [again this is due to incompetent leadership] • systems are old, antiquated and no training or growth opportunities exist Some of these themes are prevalent in other’s reviews too and in my 20 plus years of professional experience (as another reviewer said too); I can honestly say that I have never been treated so poorly; a department is only as good as the people leading it. The Extreme, Writing is on the Wall: • Go find your own projects – it’s up to you we don’t give you work to do demanded by one of the execs [who does this, this is redic -- Staff may be duplicating efforts, working on projects that are not in line with the organizational mission, etc). Clearly stated they don’t know what the heck they are doing. Simply put Do Not Play Nice. If you desire to work in a professional environment where leadership walks the talk, individuals are treated with respect and dignity, stability and growth opportunities exist, then seriously you should not waste your time with this organization.

Pros

coworkers pay supporting people in community They post the same job in multiple locations because they are open to having that role exist in different locations in many cases (note the pay is also based on where as well though) Info for those reading reviews to get a picture: I'm United States, but India reviews should really be separate feedback entirely, paid less and fed daily (read location: Hyderabad).

Cons

My last management was completely toxic Had health issues and a valid claim that was ignored, only pressured Was pushed out by my management when they found out my salary Mgmt requested to submit feedback for improvement, then retaliated Since HR was outsourced and trying to protect the company from further lawsuits (I was not one but contemplated due to validity) of absolutely no help and honestly, completely inappropriate. You will be repeatedly asked to provide feedback, but it will be killed with a 1 on 1. If I had laid down and taken the angry repercussions of their poor process implementation, and their complete lack of accountability, I would still be there - I just would have transferred to another manager. Some managers and teams are more toxic than others, but favoritism and bullying are allowed and seen Overworked and under-represented but was great for several years.
