Northwestern Memorial Hospital Employer Reviews

Staff constant call offs daily, which makes management have to jump in to gets things completed until help came. Director not wanting managers to ruffle the feathers of the union, to make our department look bad. With constant write-ups. Director more on staff side of things than management.

in my opinion it was a great working experience great management . wonderful co-workers the most enjoyable part of the job was you can work overtime as much as you like

I loved working at NMH because it allowed me to develop my customer service skills.

Positive place to work.You should contact them for more info.

As a physical therapy student on the Medicine 2 floor, I was able to treat a variety of patient's with orthopedic, neurological, psychiatric and cardiopulmonary impairments. I worked under the supervision of a physical therapist who had worked with Northwestern Memorial Hospital for 7 years.

With this job I took on more than my position in order to accomidate the company. With good team work , we passed every inspection. Most days were challenging, I made shure that I did my best on every request, and I was commented or rewarded on a job well done.

I work in a Call Center, have a great team environment. Daily communication via Email regarding updates on classes we offer or studies that are held at Northwestern Memorial. Have great management that keeps us informed of changes throughout Northwestern Memorial departments. I have excellent communication with my co-workers, always informing each other – more... of different events that may be happening at the hospital. Having that information for patients when they call. The most enjoyable part of my job are my co-workers. They add humor and keep things in perspective. – less

I worked at the Help Desk, on average, out of the 10 hours I worked per day, according to my Agent Phone I had 5 hours of not being on the phone. Within those free time, you are allowed to use your PC or electronics. So they are pretty flexible.

Northwestern Memorial is an excellent organization to work for on all levels.

A typical day of work is everyone trying to work out of their scopes trying to run to these residents to seem the brightest. It is a lot of back stabbing people who hate to see anyone excel. Management is not so supportive to help you through anything because the hospital is going through so many changes EVERYONE has potential to throw one under the – more... bus to preserve their own jobs. The only people really happy here are the Residents because they can do what ever they like including come up with a patient care plan to possible kill a patient but ultimately bring in money for the hospital which is the hospitals goal. Their slogan should be money first instead of patient first. – less

Northwestern Memorial Hospital is a gem among hospitals. It is driven to high standards of care and seeks to incorporate cutting-edge technology to assist in the provision of care. This hospital has wonderful facilities, competent and caring staff and is in the heart of downtown Chicago.

The job is ok for the most part. With every job there are pros and cons.
A typical day at work is not cut and dry assignment, sometimes you are staff to areas of high volume.
What I learned is that you will work, teach students, and you must learn the Northwestern Way on how to do business.
The co-workers are great for the most part, as with any "team" – more... setting, you have your bad/lazy workers and do-gooders
The hardest part about the job is the mental demand they need you to have, this isn't a play area, you must be on your Ps and Qs at all times
The most enjoyable part of the job is knowing that you are helping someone get better. – less

Great place to they everything to work and learn. Working with cowork who love there career. Helping poeple out getting something running or adjusting temp and see there faces with please. Thats a great feeling you did your jobs and going ex-mile.

I have worked at NMH for the last 5 years and I have had the opportunity to learn side by side with some of the top physicians and mid-level providers. I have met other incredible nurses and enjoy working with my co-workers who have also become my friends.

SIMPLY PREJUDICE, RACE ORIENTED COMPANY...
LOAD OF WORK IS HUGE COMPARED TO THE STAFFING CAPACITY

I loved working at Northwestern and my job there.The staff there always help you if you have questions or just need help.They have excellent pay but, they make you work for it. If you like taking a lunch or a break, this is not the place for you. You should be a new grad.

Great place to work with a very supportive HR department, strong benefits, and plenty of opportunities for self improvement and development.

This place is very demanding, there is no room for asvancement nor pay increase. Most of the girls who worked here have cried at least once with its overwhelming work environment.

Great team, Caring Management, Supports your career. Enjoy helping patients, growing company would highly recommend.
