      I worked at WakeMed Health and Hospitals full-time (More than a year)

      Pros

      Some good staff working there help you grow.

      Cons

      Managers in some departments have favoritism and have different rules on different employees. They let some staff get away with bullying, laziness, harrassment and not following the policies.

      Advice to Management

      STOP FAVORITISM AND FOLLOW UP ON BULLYING AND HARRASSMENT ALLEGATIONS INSTEAD OF IGNORING THE VICTIM.
