Pros
Largest employer in San Francisco. Organization is great and people overall are very nice. Great teaching school. Several opportunities to learn and grow. Benefits are good job was not stressful but always felt like you helped the community.
Cons
Even though they post several opportunities they take forever to get into them. Many times they are already been given to inside employees. With such a large company they try to avoid nepotism but it is alive and thriving here. It is a good company but people can be hired for wrong reasons. They need to change culture to be more progressive. The clinical side is great and researchers and MD's along with nurses are amazing, but due to budget cuts and state problems other areas can be hurt such as administrative. it can be difficult to move up even if you have the degrees, it can come to your title on resume. Personality fit is also important, after lay offs the wrong people were let go and the true workers were left to find new jobs. Power for some people who have never managed before it be dangerous.
