Pros

Insurance is good and everyone is like family but that's all. If you wanna waste a month or a year while you find another job? This place is it.

Cons

No communication, HR controls everything! Wanna get raises because you work hard? Ask HR because they know everything about your job and being the main ones that control your pay they have no idea how hard Pharmacy techs work! Turn over is crazy high! You work with new people almost every week but the ones that don't turn over are the ones that get to sit on their butts. New hires get a better pay. You have to do a "Rise" program and application with recommendations for HR in order to move up on your title from Tech 1 to Tech 2 and then to Tech 3 even if you stay in the same position, just for hopes in a pay raise (waste of time).

Pros

I have been privileged to work for Northside Hospital for the past five years, and my experience has been overwhelmingly positive. During my tenure, I have benefited from the organization's commitment to employee growth through its annual internal promotion policy, which has allowed me to advance within my current department. One of the aspects I value most is Northside's support for work-life balance and professional development. While working here, I was able to begin my Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program from the ground up and am on track to graduate in December 2026. The flexibility and encouragement provided by the organization have played a significant role in helping me pursue my educational goals while continuing to contribute as an employee. I was a full-time employee for most of my career with the organization and recently transitioned to part-time status to accommodate the increased demands of my nursing program. The support and understanding shown by management throughout this process have reinforced my appreciation for the company's employee-centered culture. I am grateful for the opportunities, professional growth, and support I have received over the past five years.

Cons

None that I can think of right now

Pros

Northside Hospital is a reputable healthcare organization with excellent opportunities for career growth and advancement. The pension plan is a standout benefit and adds significant long-term value to the overall compensation package.

Cons

Career advancement opportunities can sometimes feel influenced by internal relationships and networking. Additionally, HR processes may move slowly, particularly when extending offers to new hires or processing employee promotions, which can lead to delays in hiring and career progression. The PTO structure may also be a drawback for some employees, as holiday time off is deducted from PTO balances rather than being provided as separate paid holidays, reducing the amount of discretionary time off available throughout the year.
