UC Davis Health Reviews

Pros

Benefits, pay and paid holidays are great. The job is easy but never boring. You’re constantly learning new techniques and I fine tuned a lot of my skills working here. We had one RN in leadership who was great at supporting our team during the busiest days or while we were short staffed.

Cons

In my first year of working in Internal Medicine (and I’m only speaking of Internal Medicine dept alone) there has been a lot of conflict with between coworkers both personal and professional. This department lacks teamwork and a handful of really good MAs end up picking up slack. Management spend a lot of time hovering making sure you don’t have a water bottle at your desk and that your hair absolutely does not touch your shoulders rather than encouraging employee morale. Management also are very biased with certain employees blatantly displaying favoritism. I learned that putting my head down and working simply was not enough because the department thrives on drama making it hard to make friends. Many of my coworkers were on FMLA due to stress. Even with 6 months advance I was denied one day off for my child’s first birthday- worklife balance was difficult.

Pros

Everyone is willing to help

Cons

Maybe pay could be a little higher

Pros

Good benefits, vacation time, co-workers, helping people (patients) at their most vulnerable time.

Cons

Micromanaging, low pay, not valued as employees. Management treats you as your just passing through. Lots of bullying and nepotism by management.
