Scripps Health Reviews

Cons

Scripps employee discounts could be better. Needs better education reimbursement and scholarships opportunities.

Cons

The Manager is a joke and cares only about himself and does not know how to manage. I gave 8 months advanced notice of a vacation and 2 weeks before the vacation the joke of a manager denied it with no notice. This clown had 8 months to get coverage and failed. This happens every year amd not matter how much notice you give the clown still manages to screw you over. I was hounded by him one time when I needed some time off because he thought I was looking for another job. HR has their lips surgically attached to colon of management and there is no worklife balance. Every week my "schedule" drastically changed making my home life suffer and causing dangerous situations on the road and needing to sleep for a couple days just to try and get back to normal for the next drastically different shift. I had covid and told not to come to work until the quarantine was done so I was no longer contagious, I followed their instructions and then I was given a bad annual review where they said I was one of the biggest users of PTO amd that's frowned upon. Less pay most other hospitals. I could go on but I think the point has been made.

Cons

Pay could be better compared to other hospitals. Management is eager to add new quality improvement projects, but they rarely remove them. Management micromanages charge nurses to micromanage staff nurses.

Cons

management is honestly what makes the job horrible

Cons

Upper management at Scripps is focused first and foremost on the bottom line; unit management plays a lot of favorites and is inconsistent at best. Employees are all replaceable, turnover is high, experienced RNs do not get paid what they deserve, or even comparable market rates. Nurses at Scripps are currently trying to organize a union to address multiple ongoing issues -- management is engaging in dishonest, manipulative union-busting tactics. Disappointing but unsurprising.

Cons

1)you can get floated to other floors and or departments. 2) low paying profession. Although it is better than most CNA positions at nursing homes, for the work we do its still low. ($20 an hour to start) I worked there for 4 years and made it to $23. You hit your max at $25 no matter how many years you work there. 3) physically and mentally draining job. You can have up to 10 patients when there are staff shortages . But we have an average of 8 patients daily. Assignments are balanced for the RNs not for CNAs so sometimes you have heavy assignments sometimes you have an okay day depends on your patients and team. 4)RN Nurses there are not very helpful. Most of them are either socializing, shopping on their phones or have poor time management that they can't finish their tasks or pass meds on time so they claim to not have time to help you. 5) you do get rude ungrateful patients and family members. Not every day but it does happen and sometimes its just too much to deal with. You must have thick skin. 6) parking is far and your only allowed to park in C structure. Plan at least 10 minutes walking from your car to the clocking in phone. 7) mandatory monthly learning and refresher LMS videos on how to care for patients and handle diseases. Constant learning new things new tools new products. You Must read, speak ,write in English as there are annual employee reviews we must type about ourselves and other staff members. Essay length and yes its annually!
