you will meet a lot of lovely, hardworking people to get you through the days. when you get a good supervisor/manager, they will really do their best to root for you and work with you. when i was there, health insurance was decently-priced, even when hands changed, though i'm not sure if that remains the case.

there seems to be a sense of uncertainty that grew worse over time. between the changing hands at the top of the corporate latter, to buy-outs, the environment simply became unstable. for the most part, it's become a revolving door for employees. most doesn't stay six months, never mind a year, and those who stick around tend to get treated poorly unless they are grade-a suck ups, and even then those folks might not even be so lucky. also, pay raises? good luck seeing those anymore. if you're hired per diem, you'll never see them, anyway, by virtue of that title, and trust me, unless you move on to management or an entirely different job title, you will never stop being per diem. at one certain facility, it was a very convenient way for them to have a herd of employees without having to worry about the question of raises and without having to provide benefits options. basically, the hospital as a whole is rather exploitative of their employees. about half the employees, i'm not even sure how they made it past interviews, though, considering how many of them were awful people who treated patients like they couldn't even pretend to give a crap about their care. the company has sort of always been a mess, but it simply gets progressively worse every year.
