      They have changed their benefits in the last few years and compared to what we use to get our new benefits aren't that great. Short staffed in a lot of areas so could be working long hours.

      I worked at Nationwide Children's Hospital full-time

      Pros

      Exciting work and the opportunity to see some state of the art procedures and facilities. Nice holiday events. Good mission. Parking is affordable, if you make it into a garage.

      Growth isn't necessarily the most important thing. Rankings won't keep a hospital functional; retaining quality employees will.

      Benefits, dedication to diversity, hours.

      I worked at Nationwide Children's Hospital full-time (More than 5 years)

      Pros

      Many children who are treated at Nationwide Children's Hospital are being treated for debilitating illnesses or injuries. I felt honored that through my work I was able to help the children and families in a small way.

      Cons

      The growth is so incredibly fast that employees cannot keep up with the changes due to lack of communication.

      Advice to Management

      It is imperative that employees are kept in the loop of all the changes to ensure the work gets done efficiently and the families/patients needs continue to b e met.

      Amazing environment, top of the line equipment and research teams. Amazing and innovative physicians, nurses, and employees. Children are a privilege to care for.

      Cons

      Feeling confused about choosing an insurance plan, HR not offering much support with this and I am new to this stuff. Young single mother, wanting to make the best decision. Doing a lot of reading and googling.

      Advice to Management

      HR should be more helpful with choosing insurance, clearly explaining the pros and cons and answering questions.
