Pros

Reasonable pay and pension - if you can stick it out all your life! Friendly staff, good team work, bigger hospitals still got access to things like physiotherapy and counselling Some places are still good for training (but they're becoming rarer and rarer as staffing levels are plummeting)

Cons

Crappy compulsory shifts (13 hour nights), understaffed and no paid overtime available anymore, no training due to understaffing, very rare that top management interacts with staff at frontline or asks views at worker's level; no flexibility in working hours at all or when to take holidays if you're in a smaller hospital
