      Pros

      Benefits, flexibility, discount parking, good part of mpls to work in

      Cons

      No accountability. Management is incompetent and extra work is given to you because of this. Lots of talk but no action. Management wants to be involved in everything but does nothing. Pointless meetings all the time.

      Advice to Management

      Listen to your employees and don't ask for advice or suggestions for improvement if you're going to not listen.

      Pros

      Great 401k/retirement package, high employer contribution percent

      Cons

      This place expects too much of management. We put in 12 hour days and still can't get everything done that is expected of us. They are constantly coming up with new initiatives before previously implemented one's are completed.

      Advice to Management

      To all get on one page and make strides in one area instead of coming up with a laundry list of projects

      Pros

      Full-time job with very good benefits package

      Cons

      Very low income, interview process takes months, management is not held accountable

      Advice to Management

      Ask your staff for recommendations on what you can do to be better. Make staff feel appreciated. Offer larger wages to keep up with what other companies offer their employees.

      Pros

      Patients, providers, not one pro about the supervisor chain of command. The philosophy is to brush it under the rug.

      Cons

      Supervisors, very unprofessional, immature, NO confidentiality! Why do you keep losing good employees?

      Advice to Management

      Listen to the rooming staff. Stop covering up poor supervision! We are caring for cancer patients, they deserve better.

      Pros

      Lots of opportunities to get new experience, cross train etc. Flexible hours, great coworkers and lower management

      Cons

      upper management is slow with change, it's hard to see where this company is going long term now that the UMP/Fairview merger ended.

      Advice to Management

      change needs to happen, it feels a little disorganized

      Pros

      UMP values and employs cutting edge research and innovative care models. The majority are caring, respectful and collaborative providers and care teams. Senior management reads and considers patient and visitor feedback, making adjustments as needed. UMP works towards its vision and mission. Providers spend quality time with patients, do thorough evals, listen to patients and answer their questions. (Many of our patients are complex and have several co-existing health issues, whereas some community clinics must quickly shuffle through a minimum number of patients per day). My family has personally seen several providers across family medicine and the specialty clinics and we have been very impressed with all but one physician. We were even so impressed with some physicians that we transferred care to UMP.

      Cons

      Change is slow. Senior management doesn't truly value and consider employee feedback; they have a set vision and require providers, nurses and staff to continually adjust, even when those processes are not working and corrective feedback and suggestions are offered. A few providers have left to work elsewhere and some clinics choose not to be fully staffed during the new center's hours M-F from 7 am-7 pm and Sat. mornings; therefore, demand exceeds supply in some clinics, causing a few months of wait time for appointments. However, I can understand that specialty physicians, after several years of experience and expertise, do not necessarily desire to work evenings and weekends, so they may decide to work at another location.

      Advice to Management

      Listen to and truly consider the feedback of providers, RNs, clinic managers, rooming staff and supportive staff. Each group can see and understand specific aspects of care that can be improved. This will cause improved processes, improved patient care and satisfaction, better employee satisfaction, more engagement and pride in the organization.
