Pros
Great teaching hospital! Depending on your craft, this is a fantastic place to perfect it. At the end of the day the repitition and experience gained is unparalleled.
Cons
Scheduling is based on seniority and many floors operate on a two week day/night rotation. Sometimes the turnaround is less than 24 hrs which can be brutal. We don't use PTO instead it's separated into vacation and sick time. Starting in 2016, we can only accumulate 1.5 times your vacation. The problem is if you are low on seniority you'll never get to use the vacation when it is ideal. But if you don't use it you'll no longer acrue additional vacation. So you can take a day a week or a full week in September after the kids are back in school. Sick time is a joke only because we operate on a points system therefore if you use it for any thing other than FMLA you risk your job.
