Pros

Good benefits Great place to work for you slackers out there That's it!

Cons

Old fashioned management style Poor communication Punching the time clock is more important than getting the job done Overwork high performing employees, chasing them away Old buildings with environmental issues Older employees into game playing and politics big time and get away with it Slacker employees receive more credit than they deserve - no management or consequences for inability to get the job done Hard working employees are just worked harder and not given any credit

The pace and volume of work can be intense given the organization’s ambitious goals. At times, this can make maintaining work‑life balance challenging.

Pros

Good benefits. 401k match over 6% and decent PTO. Competitive pay.

Cons

My particular facility is being neglected and falling apart. Sutter management is obsessed with opening shiny new facilities to capture as much market share as possible. Anyone considering a job with Sutter should only do so at one of their newer or flagship facilities. Favoritism is rampant in this organization and friends of management can do as they please while everyone else is micromanaged. Leave of absence abuse is rampant among staff leading to staffing shortages. There's no parking, and you're harassed for clocking in a few minutes early or late. Your lunch break is timed to the minute. Flat career structure with lots of favoritism. Lots of staff members are forced to work mandatory overtime and miss breaks too as Sutter prefers to under hire to keep profit margins up.
