Salary Negotiations

Registered Nurse

I need help trying to negotiate my salary for a Penn medicine ambulatory nurse II rehab position. I will be moving to Philadelphia in a couple weeks and have three different offers on the table. One job that I am fond of is with Penn medicine working in the rehab facility. I will be doing mostly triage, helping doctors with in office procedures and administrative work. Before I went on the interview,the recruiter told me they are only able to give this one salary based on my years…

    Sometimes hard to get things inventory wise. Lots of logistical walls and red tape that shouldn't be there, otherwise not much

    Pros

    This was higher pay than the competing health system in 2020 (Thomas Jefferson System). But I believe that TJ might be even or more now. PM has decent pay for the COL in the area. There's a lot of opportunities to learn a lot of different skills, which I appreciate.

    Cons

    -The culture can be really odd. Doctors don't own all their patients. There seems to be an inappropriate culture of superiors sleeping with people they have power over. This is true from admin to nurses and doctors. - Despite what people say, the health insurance is not that good imo. You're kind of forced to use Penn medicine for care, and even then, the doctors always dictate their care, for me, based on what insurance will cover, instead of giving care they should be giving. - No Pension.
