The day to day experience is good. I love my department. Upper administration leaves a lot to be desired. They're untrustworthy and will protect bad apples.
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
Quality patient care for all
What do you like best about your company?
My coworkers and my union.
What would you most like to see improved at your company?
Transparency and accountability of executives. Paying all job classes a living wage.
What makes you most happy at work?
Being able to help people by connecting them with the services they need. Being a brightspot in peoples day.
What did you like most about the interview process?
Ease of conversation, transparency on how wage is determined. (UW Medicine took over after i was hired, so it ciuld be a different process)
What are some of the best things about your team?
We work together to create a smooth running department. We can trust the quality of work from everyone. Providers and manager regularly express appreciation of each position.
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Pay competitively. Be transparent. Stop lip service. Stop expanding when the current locations are a mess - focus on making what you have better before adding more strain on a dismal staff & applicant pool.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
We are paid less than surrounding hospitals, and administration actively works against its workers. They constantly short change people and find loop holes in contracts so they don't need to pay differentials. It's greedy. Pay us enough to be able to live in the community we serve.
