What is the hiring process like at Tenet Healthcare?

Benefits are okay, The food court is good in the other building and depending on your manager, you're allowed to work from home some.

The most depressing work environment I've ever been in. I've worked at a lot of different corporations and this one takes the cake in regards to everyone keeping their head down and very little collaboration between departments. No one talks to you unless you are working directly with you. Also, I went through 4 different managers within 3 months. That alone makes working difficult and when I was hired on, they provided me with no work for the first month. I just sat at my desk, asking for work but nothing was given. Consistency is very much lacking. Leadership doesn't seem to care about their employees at any big corporation but it's very true here. You're just a number and can be easily replaced. I was replaced because my hiring manager was willing to train me, but by the time I got to my 4 manager, they weren't as willing. I was already miserable at the corporate office so I was glad to go. If you hate social interaction, leadership that doesn't care about you, and very little benefits, then this place is for you.

The contract rate is competitive, and the direct deposit is reliable. This is the beginning and end of the professionalism you will experience

At first, the environment seems merely chaotic. You'll soon realize the chaos is a carefully engineered defense mechanism. A huge portion of the development work is stunningly repetitive and could be easily automated with a few simple scripts. The long-tenured team knows this. Their job security is therefore dependent on ensuring the process remains manual, complex, and tribal. I started 2 months after a verbal offer because there were some "unforseen" requirements. Once there, I spent the first 6 weeks attending meetings and got 0 assignments despite asking for work. This is the key to understanding everything that happens here. They cannot afford to pause, organize, and codify their methods, because doing so would expose how automatable their work is, rendering their specialized knowledge obsolete. How do they prevent this? By creating a culture of constant, manufactured crisis. Everything is needed yesterday and everyobody is under water. This frantic pace serves a critical purpose: it ensures no one, especially a competent newcomer, ever has the time to breathe, analyze the workflow, and suggest improvements. There's "no time" for onboarding, "no time" to guide you on how to interpret their documentation, and "no time" to answer clarifying questions. Your attempts to bring order are not just unhelpful; they are a direct threat to this system and are pushed back. Your requests for help are largely ingored. All the while, you'll be forced to work within their archaic framework: copy-pasting entire code blocks for new sites instead of using a single reusable component; critical values hardcoded directly into the code; real patient data and personal experimental code in a test system,an overly complicated way of managing variables, the concept of automated testing is non-existent; QA is one person frantically clicking through the site before a go-live. The feedback loop is non-existent because a real performance review would require discussing process, which is the one topic they must avoid. There is no formal onboarding documentation so I had to rely on the staff for that and they were just too busy. So you work in a silent void until you are unceremoniously fired mid-task via your agent. The chaos is so complete that several weeks after the termination, I still had their equipment and live VPN access—a testament to a team so focused on protecting their inefficient system that they ignore basic operational security.

Hiring is easy bc they are desperate

You will waste your life here in achieve nothing. It will send you to an early grave.

It is a place to work

I feel it’s important to warn others about the unethical and immoral practices of this company, especially recruiter R.Reyna. I applied, interviewed and negotiated an offer for a Dayshift position, only to discover after completing the weeks long process that the shift on my offer letter was for nightshift. At no point did I ever made it seem like I was opened for nightshift, all of my communication with this recruiter only made mention of dayshift, even through emails I only wrote about the dayshift position; however, only after I had declined another offer had I been made aware that the dayshift position I was so looking forward, had already been filled weeks before I even applied for it (why was it still up on the website then ??) This kind of bait-and-switch tactic not only wastes time but can have a significant impact on nurses who depend on clear and honest communication when making career decisions. It’s deeply concerning to think how many other professionals may have been similarly misled. Recruiters have a responsibility to act with integrity, especially in industries like nursing, where our livelihoods and patient care are at stake. I hope this review encourages others to approach this agency with caution and holds them accountable for their actions. Transparency and professionalism should be the standard—not the exception.
