Geisinger reviews about "layoff"

There was a layoff due to department downsizing

They run the hospital and clinics like a corporation. Layoffs without notice. Poor leadership and administration that do not look at themselves, but fire frontline workers before taking a salary cut or decreasing the number of managers/execs. Shady practices with no clear communication to providers, staff, or the community.

Employees are always kept at lowest end of salary range, especially women and minorities. Theres small group of favorites. Managers take credit for your work to advance, constantly offering false hope to keep you "engaged." The people who are left at the place --- and they are cutting many MANY jobs --- either ate their young to survive or are very good at hiding and taking a beating. They blew through an enormous budget with nothing to show and now layoffs are every other day. Managers have lists of expendable people -- no longer people but positions and numbers. They culled the young to keep their big titles and laugh with pompous candor at the meanderings of the minions. It's the most awful experience that required therapy while working there and after working there. Most people in marketing are not actually from the area the hospital serves. They look down upon the people here like bugs under a psychotic kid's burning magnifying glass. The psychological damage is real. Would never recommend to a friend. An enemy, likely.
