Pros
Pay was decent. No overtime or shift work. I am trying to think of more, but am having a difficult time coming up with the Pros of working there. Oh, somewhat flexible schedule.
Kontras
Novant was strictly in a growth and acquisition mode the last 6 to 7 years. As a result, they grew with little regard towards maturing processes. Because they spent so much money acquiring other organizations, they are now forced to make reductions in their work force. I was forced to constantly justify my existence. Because some Senior Mgmt/Directors have been there for 20 years, the culture is opposed to change. In addition, these same members of mgmt don't have much experience outside of the organization. There is little to no opportunities for promotions. Career development is non-existent. Performance evaluations are merely a paper-work exercise, as performance is not tied to pay. If you are looking for a place to work where you can just blend in and meet minimal expectations, then Novant might be the place for you. If you are looking for a place that will help to advance your career, you are best to stay away from this organization. Benefits are absolutely horrible. Tuition reimbursement is a joke.
