Pros

Emory is a great place to start working and learn. There are many benefits that are hard to compete with while working here. It's hard to say much more.

Cons

There is no future for many of its employees unless you are in the click with leadership. They will help pay for your advanced education after a certain time; however, Emory will not advance you after education is received. I have applied for many other jobs at Emory that I should be qualified for; however, after several years of outstanding professional reviews from my supervisor, Emory cannot recognize that. Emory is not loyal to its hard working employees that keep it running and is too big to realize what they are losing. Several employees have left due to the same realization. I have talked to senior leadership several times now about my intentions of wanting to advance too. Still... nothing.

Pros

It's okay... I don't know how other ORs are run for comparison. Pay is alright. $47/hr and on-call is $8/hr. Have over 3 years of experience. Most people are pretty friendly. The friendly ones are starting to leave now, unfortunately.

Cons

Management doesn't fix problems. They won't respond to emails. Often don't have specimen printers, patient moving boards, etc. Tons of extra timeouts are kind of inconvenient (pre-op, pre-anesthesia, and pre-incision). Parking and commute are hassles. You can't park next to the hospital unless you are a doctor or advanced practitioner. At least 30min per day wasted on bus to and from hospital from parking tower I'm assigned. So much traffic to get to and from work. On call is very tiring. They frequently assign 7pm-7am overnight call right after 12hr shifts and then want you to stay because night shift didn't show up. Call requirement is at least 48hrs per month. Most OR rooms are super messy and badly stocked. ...Seems like more and more bad people are getting promoted to management positions. My immediate manager is good. The ones over her are not that great.
