Loma Linda University Health Employee Reviews about "sda"

Pros

Diverse workforce, great benefits, clean and safe facilities, continuous improvement, people walk the talk when it comes to values, respectful culture

Cons

If you are not SDA the food available in their cafeterias may not be of your liking

Pros

good health benefits (vision/dental not so much), some good people work here in the supporting departments.

Cons

Leadership is weak and do not make any good decisions. Good talent is constantly lost and pay is ridiculously low for the hospitals and for shared services. If you are SDA, then you will be promoted to a role you are unqualified for, and ZERO effort is put into developing team members or even introducing best practices to the organization. Leadership isn't even aware of the problems and acts surprised when issues come to light. Learning from their mistakes is just a phrase they utter every time they make the same damn mistakes over and over again.

Pros

Very nice people, easy to feel loyalty. Great values and treated fair with great benefits.

Cons

Cant go too deep into upper management without being SDA

Pros

If your team make goal, you might get free lunch or wear jeans on Friday. Affordable insurance but you have to travel to Lona Linda for service

Cons

Low pay. Can not use sick time unless you accumulate 120 hrs sick time (take 3 years to get that). Nepotism. If you are not SDA, you are second class citizen. Work life balance is non existent. They expect you to work long hours if you are non exempt but the moment you take several days off for medical problem (using your own PTO, because it is difficult to use sick time), you will get into problem with your supervisor. Short staff but have a lot of director , VP, managers (the majority of them are SDA) . A lot of house keeping is going around. If you are on FMLA, you will get cut if you do not get back to work after 6 months. They don't care that you have cancer. "Doing God's work and make man whole" is their mission statement. What a statement.

Pros

Great Team and Coworkers, truly care for patients

Cons

Horrible Management. You will not get ahead unless you are SDA religious, HR will not assist in issues if they are a member of the church.

Pros

Some of the staff was loving, lots of work if you love your job as I did, and flexible work schedule.

Cons

Very low pay when you are doing the job of four people, some of the employees in Finance will stab you in the back for sure, employees over seven years do very little work while managers do most of the work, financial analyst have no excel skills and can only do what they were trained to do, moral is very low, employees don't trust management and management don't trust employees, no room for advancement unless you are SDA then you are promoted even if you do deserve it, they bring in consultants to clean up the accounting because the employees can't/will not do the work and then let them go instead of hiring them because they are not SDA, my advice would be to look for other employment because they will suck the life and happiness out of an employee.

Pros

The faculty are helpful, you will have lots of exposure to interesting cases. The nurses during the day are very knowledge and helpful .

Cons

It's very inclusive to other seventh day Adventist members. I have seen that people who should not be residents at Loma Linda caliber where allowed in because they went to the Loma Linda university medical school or where SDA.

Pros

A good place to work but gives preference to applicants that are SDA.

Cons

Same as above. Gives preference to SDA applicants.
