Pros
Self schedule, good benefits. Competent colleagues
Cons
Needs more care partner during the shift
- Current Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
You will see everything from Level 1 traumas, to heart transplants, and ECMO patients. Great place to learn.
Cons
There’s not a lot of accountability in place for people who just do the bare minimum, and people who just aren’t good at their jobs, they get by just fine with no repercussions. There’s no retraining in place even when some people could definitely use it... and almost no one gets fired, even when they should.

- Current Employee, more than 10 years★★★★★
Pros
Tuition benefit if you began employment before 2019. Healthcare availability. I personally have a good work environment.
Cons
Retirement contribution not matched dollar for dollar, only up to 5% match. I suppose that's common though. Required to get the flu vaccine each year even if you have no direct patient contact. Healthcare cost is tiered, so you almost have to see a VUMC doctor. Otherwise you pay more. VUMC should not have so much information about their employees health and the health of their family.
