Pros

Amazing mission to serve that they actually live by and build their business around. Faith-based so all faiths welcome and respected. Opportunities for growth abound and managers encourage growth. Many training opportunities. Challenging work and workload so never a dull moment. Good people to work for and with! Great benefits, good pay. Managers work shoulder to shoulder with employees in open, mobile environment. Work-from-Home Mobility Program being rolled out.

Cons

No parking garage so serious hail damage, but then all of northwest Indy shared the same fate! Challenging work and workload can be intimidating, but have learned to ask questions and request help when needed. So many acronyms you practically have to learn a new language!

Pros

The patient population can be very rewarding to work with, and there can be lots of different job opportunities but very limited advancement with mainly lateral department shifts if a person is looking for change.

Cons

Raises are almost non-existent. The "raise" is a yearly COLA of between 2%-3%. There is no ability to talk to anyone regarding a raise, even the admin staff are fully stonewalled in the overlly corporate monolithic HR style of maintaining "fair" wages. I have worked here for several years and I actually earn less now because my "raises" do not keep up with inflation and the actual cost of living. They maintain their functionality on squeezing as much as they can out of one employer by slowly shifting more job responsibilities called "opportunities" onto you without extra pay or change in title that would get a pay increase. They look to higher level licensed staff to provide more coverage for roles that they won't hire for or cut in departments. They do "organizational restructuring" every 6 months because more staff quit, they don't replace the staff, and tell others to absorb the former FT employees job responsibilities without pay increase and being told not to go into OT.
