Stanford Health Care Reviews

Pros

- our department is consistently pushing innovation - growth mindset - positivity is ubiquitous across staff members and there is a strong sense of team - each individual has the opportunity to exercise and use their strengths day in and day out

Cons

more opportunities for health care workers (besides MD's) to conduct clinical trials

Pros

Team environment Support when needed Salary was adequate for local cost of living

Cons

If I clocked in or out five minutes earlier or later I was reprimanded. Sometimes it was not possible due to the patient care requirements or because there was a lineup at the clock in station. Lots of travel nurses. Hard to adjust to new faces all the time.

Pros

Good benefits and high salary,

Cons

Micro managing, I think managers are bored that even though your hands are full, they get you and say something that you’re not done with charting, which obviously you haven’t start charting because too busy taking care of your patients. They always pick you if you’re not their favorite.

Pros

Amazing opportunity to contribute to the greater good of health care through clinical trials research. The team of people I worked with were amazing!

Cons

Toxic leader and work environment. Everything was an emergency. The leader was a people pleaser on a "quest" to be a Vice President (her words!) and sacrificed everyone around her to achieve that goal. Lost 14 people in 1 year in our department....run away, this is not the place for you, I promise.

Pros

There’s really nothing good about this company. It is NOT Stanford hospital pay level , they’re just under the Stanford umbrella.

Cons

Worse management. No advancement opportunity or growth. Overload of work for less pay. This is not Stanford hospital pay , don’t compare it. Look elsewhere to work for, this place is toxic everywhere. Managers need to be trained professionally. Too much politics and favoritism. Highest employee turnovers I’ve ever witnessed.

Pros

Excellent executive leaders Mission & values SPOT ON great to strive for Many resources Good benefits (the only reason I stay) If you are good at the illusion of intelligence, you will go far here You don’t get written up for poor performance or toxic behavior Good cafeteria

Cons

Lots of favoritism It’s all who you know Hard work & being competent does not equate to success at Stanford Medical Nurses are valued over all else, if only they could do all the work… Pay is not equitable Parking is challenging Some leaders are in over their head

Pros

-Great place to get embedded in the world of academic medicine. -Intellectually and creatively engaging. -Opportunity to work closely with medical stakeholders and learn about world-renowned innovations in care.

Cons

- Pressure to deliver quickly made for extremely long hours at times. - Differing visions at higher levels made for some internal confusion.

Pros

You probably won’t get laid off

Cons

You will never get promoted or even thanked

Pros

The benefits are okay but could be better.

Cons

sometimes micromanaging ,stressful incoming calls from upset callers and staff shortage.

Pros

Mission driven organization. Most people are nice and want to do the right thing and work hard

Cons

Very political - not very strategic. Too much hierarchy
