    Nice Place But Don't Expect To Be Paid Well

    Feb 21, 2023 - Anonymous Employee in New York, NY

    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Very friendly colleagues. Most passionate about what they do. Nice office environment.

    Cons

    I work in back-office administration. Think HR, IT, Finance, etc. During the best of times, annual pay increases are set to 3% if you're a top performer, and 2% if you're average. This has become increasingly problematic given inflation. Even more problematic is that the admin thinks we're idiots - but we know how to read a 990. We talk. And we know that the top-level staff gets annual raises way above 2%. Most staff put up with this because they come from disadvantage communities - either minorities or 50 years old or older. But it's wrong. Know in advance if you work here you will never get a real raise unless you are promoted. And promotions are extremely difficult to attain as I can tell from my colleagues who have been here over a decade in the same exact position.

    OB/GYN Department Rocks

    Feb 6, 2023 - Medical Assistant in New York, NY
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    So far I have been employed as a medical assistant at Weill Cornell Medicine OB/GYN department for 6 months. Can be a hard job, but depending on which location in the city you work at, the doctors are very helpful. They are also very independent and are trusted when you have questions about a plan of care. Extremely knowledgable, caring, and fun. You have some doctors that are not as pleasing to work with, but the pay is good with opportunity for raises and bonuses. You get a moderately generous personal/vacation allowance, and the benefits are nice.

    Cons

    A lot of mismanagement on the clinical side. 1. You only get your assignment/start time for the next day, the day before. Can be frustrating to plan things outside of work. 2. Their are only 2 nursing managers for the entire department, so when there are small problems that should be handles practice to practice, it can be difficult to find solutions. 3. You get floated :( after 6-months, you are expected to float to different locations to help. 4. Training is minimal and it will be hard to keep up without some prior experience.

    Disorganized, unprofessional and disrespectful management

    Pros

    Weill Cornell Medicine as a whole is a well regarded academic, research and health institution in New York City.

    Cons

    The research team I was apart of was in the Department of Population Health Science called the All of Us Research program. I have never experienced such a disorganized, unprofessional and toxic work environment. Communication and teamwork did not exist and I always felt uncomfortable around management.
