Briefly describe your overall experience at your company
Corporation is about making money and making themselves look good on paper
Review from Customer Support Dept
What do you like best about the leadership team?
They are approachable and personable. They get us what we need to care for patients.
Nothing ... uchealth just throws someone in the role , overworks them and then burnout
Review from Customer Support Dept
They seem to be involved in the team
Review from Operations Dept
They try to make it seem that they are engaged.
Smart people, but sort of pre-occupied with their own problems. Not super great at actually leading others
Review from IT Dept
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Listening to their employees on the ground floor and not having bonuses they get for understaffing us.
Actually doing better for their employees. "Patient centered care" is unrealistic due to the constant blocks on schedules, the short time allotted for appointments. Hard to be happy every day when being paid like a fast-food employee with x4 the responsibilities
Managing,;process improvement, communication, operations analysis, etc.
Using core values and doing their job properly in order to help the rest of us succeed.
Listening and including others. Actually fixing problems, not covering them up. Realize it is ok to say we made a mistake, correct it and move on. Stop prioritizing the C suite and focus on those that actually do the work
What is the best part about your compensation package?
I was grandfathered into the pension
PTO, healthcare and 32 hour work week
They cover dependents through their 27th year AND they offer good MH cost and availability.
403b matching and education grants
I have had better benefits but just glad to have coverage
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Getting what we actually should be paid instead of the lowest price point that goes towards the managers bonuses. I feel undervalued because no one listens to anything except the numbers and money
Support!!!! Pay would be decent if not overworked with long hours and had consistent help and could focus primarily on my job vs doing orhers often as well
Review from Customer Support Dept
The utter lack of pay and justification for it being "it could be worse if you lived in Kansas" umm that's pretty obvious but we don't and you can do something to fix it but choose not to. PTO is atrocious since it is all one pool. God forbid you get sick one day and want a different day for PTO
Better pay and benefits. Close the wage gap between executives and frontline staff
We are constantly having bonuses and benefits taken away. The amount of middle management compared to people actually doing patient care is appalling
What are some of the best things about your team?
We all generally work hard and are here because we want to be.
We all feel the same about UCHealth
Review from Customer Support Dept
Trauma bonding because for the most part everyone is doing their best. Emphasis on "the most part". Some do less than the bare minimum and get praised for it
sense of community, always working on something ie potluck, collecting for food banks, etc.
Review from Operations Dept
We work together as a team
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
The coworkers are all mean, undercut each other, and blame everyone else for things happening
My coworkers are very immature. They werebprobably meam girls in high school and will remain that way for the rest of their lives.
Lots of triangulation supported about directors and above
Less gossip within the select group. Teams messaging is an issue at times. Accept when you’re wrong, learn from it and move forward. Respect leaders better. Better communication on all level
Communicate with respect and show others they are valued
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
Everybody collaborates and we are encouraged to do what we think is right
Nurse to nurse environment is supportive.
Being heard and not following metrics just for the sake of metrics but to see how we can help our patients and our team both
Review from Operations Dept
Good Providers, Clean, positive peaceful suite
Coworkers are the best. We have a great tram
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Actually valuing what employees on the ground level have to say and allowing us to take space for our own wellbeing without being retaliated against.
Upper management to care and support their employees
Review from Customer Support Dept
Staff needs to be compensated/taken care of better
De-emphasize expansion, stop making every leadership position a director, reinvest in team leads, supervisors, and the average worker.
Pay us More money will fix anything.
What did you like most about the interview process?
There were multiple team members present to meet so I could get a feel for how well I might fit in
Informal informal nice people informal
Review from Customer Support Dept
Multi panel interview included several managers and the director.
The executive gave me a lot of information
Review from Operations Dept
I had a virtual meetings, which I preferred to only electronic communication
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
Ask better questions and invlve more people
Takes to long to get anyone hired. A lot of people move on before we can get to the offer stage. They need to screen better and let managers make offers; not HR
HR reps are uninformed about positions and provided information that was incorrect
Maintain contact with applicants. If a position is filled, out of courtesy to those who applied UC Health should contact the ones who didnt get the job by a simple letter.
When I interviewed 5 years ago, this was a great place to work. I feel bad for anyone being lied to in interviews now
What makes you most happy at work?
Being able to engage with patients
Leaving at the end of the day
the people and the interactions
Review from Operations Dept
interacting with the patients daily
Coworkers Good team Getting stuff accomplished
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
There is not enough focus on actual patient care and instead everyone just shrugs their shoulders instead of trying to find solutions for that patient. There is no continuity of care because each dept is too independent and no one collaborates
Overbooked schedules, unrealistic expectations, too much emphasis on patient reviews (this is healthcare not a restaurant needing Yelp reviews), lack of PROPER compensation for living in Colorado (this is not Kansas), lack of PTO, meetings that are mandatory and pointless, NO EMPLOYEE PARKING
Pay staff more before they leave.
execs get exorbitant salaries while they nickel and dime their healthcare workers
Corporate greed. We need a Union!
What do you like best about your company?
Nothing Nothing worth bragging about!
Review from Customer Support Dept
that we help people
