How employees describe working at Scripps Health
When i get to go home
They are great in providing a work life balance
Learning how to lead. Uneducated individuals that dont have experience are being placed in leadership roles.
Scripps La Jolla is highly unorganized. Nurses are good just no communication between them. They’ll ask you the same questions that they asked you five minutes ago, so I feel they’re too lazy to read your chart. The food is awful and cold. They don’t post your results to your testing for a fe

Q&A With Scripps Health Employees
IDX: 0 TOT: 42
What's one thing you wish you'd known before joining Scripps Health?
Their raises are a joke (2% on average) and their benefits leave a lot to be desired. They don't even offer a PPO health plan or a 401k. They offer a 401a, but the match is only 3% and it is after tax. They continually look for ways to cut expenses and some of that comes at the expense of their staff. They are continually chipping away at the company benefits. They also don't offer much in continuing education and often want the staff to pay for their certifications out of pocket. In other words, they will host a certification course, but they do not pay you to attend and charge you for the course under the disguise that it "isn't required for you position", yet your certification benefits the department you work in. If I could make one recommendation to the powers that be, it would be to at least keep the raises inline with annual cost of living increases. Year after year you make less money because of this.
I'm mixed. The place definitely grew me in some ways but was horribly unfair in other ways.
That a lot of people there never forget (or forgive) a mistake. I made several over the course of my time in the pursuit of doing thew work I thought I should have been doing. They inevitably came back to haunt me.
If you could make changes, how would you improve the culture at Scripps Health?
Not sure. They like it this way. It is a challenging culture.
Change incentive programs for physicians to be aligned with organizational goals. Communicate business goals and models better.
Scripps is actually working to improve the culture from within via Value by Design and using the MDI processes. All departments are encouraged to participate in daily huddles in which all input is valued and solutions are typically crowd-sourced, with managerial facilitation only extending to implementation, not barrier creation.
