Pros

Providence pays well at the System Office but there is definitely a price to pay for this in that your personal life will take a back seat to getting the job done - at least for people on the front line of service.

Cons

Middle management does not understand the time needed to complete the job. People on the front line end up working overtime (sometimes without reporting it) in order to complete their work.

Pros

(This is for Providence St Vincent Medical Center in PDX) - staffing ratios - break nurses - ONA union - coworkers on my unit are very helpful and kind (can’t speak for every unit though)

Cons

- upper management hates the nursing union - we are short on many supplies on weekend night shifts - crappy insurance - my unit’s manager is almost never there, they’re always on vacation or working remote. This makes our manager very out of touch with the unit’s needs
