Northside Hospital Employee Review
Oct 11, 2022 - Clinical Staff PharmacistRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Excellent company to work for. Just had my 10-year anniversary. Love my schedule, colleagues, and supervisors. All are very accommodating, and willing to work with you through just about anything, such as when personal issues/problems arise. I can't say enough! Northside Hospital is a great place to work, and I hope I finish my career here.
Cons
More communication between management and staff.
Thanks for your five-star review! We appreciate you sharing your experience with us. Thanks for being a part of the Northside team and for providing your suggestion!

Not recommended for Minorities
May 25, 2023 - Registered Nurse in Atlanta, GARecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Benefits are ok. Pension great
Cons
I gave this company many chances. Be aware you will not be treated the same if you’re a minority employee at this hospital. There are some good managers but otherwise when you bring concerns to management to have a better work environment the response is to push you out by suddenly finding errors in your work performance. I remember as a new employee when a patient requested for light skin caregivers only (nonblack) and guess what happened the unit followed her request. I witnessed the manager make exceptions for errors of white employees but for myself and other minorities it was constant picking and/ or being called into the office. Please don’t bother reaching out to Employee Relations/HR. They all work together to cover up toxic behavior and lies instead of mediating and finding a solution. You will make it at this hospital if you have connections or endure workplace harassment/ bullying but otherwise I recommend working for different hospitals in the area.

Best hospital to work for with amazing benefits and collaborative team effort..
May 24, 2023 - Snr. Application Analyst in Atlanta, GARecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Northside has amazing benefits with the only hospital to offer pension plan in GA. The culture really pushes you to cllaborate and become a better employee every day. There are opportunities at every level to choose from and training to be better at what you do. I transitioned from a bedside nurse to information system employee, and it has been absolutely rewarding that Northside gives you the opportunity to grow and be better at whatever talent you bring in.
Cons
I do not see any downside working at Northside as long as you do your work, sky is the limit.

Returning Employee
Apr 10, 2023 - Service Coordinator in Cumming, GARecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Northside Hospital is by far the best healthcare system I have ever worked for. Additionally, their focus on quality and investing resources where needed are unmatched. Not only am I proud to work as a Northside employee, but I would take my family to a Northside facility should they have a medical need (even when I worked for other HC systems-I'd still go to Northside Hospital!). Having compared Northside to other large healthcare systems has given me great perspective. The pay is fair, benefits are great (lots of discounts as well as a pension and 403B!), and there has NEVER been a time while working for Northside that I have felt pressured to do more with less or have had to deviate from what I know is safe due to resource restrictions. We have the equipment and staff that we need to do an exceptional job. Our campus is beautiful, and I thoroughly enjoy coming to work. We work hard but also have a lot of fun. I'm thankful to have had an opportunity to return to the organization. This is my HOME!
Cons
Pay is not always the highest in terms of $/hr but they do have some great benefits to offset not being the highest paying. Northside is a conservative organization so many changes take longer than wanted at times due to the vetting process.

Management is hit or miss

Pension option, student loan help after a certain amount of time
Cons
It is truly hit or miss with management. Very high school like with cliques and favoritism. Turnover is high.

Frequent raises and of course self scheduling benefits along with pto.

Not much of a downside besides some of the extra stuff they want you to do just because you’re finally sitting but that’s not really much of a complaint.
