Challenging
Purchasing Manager (Current Employee), Yonkers, NY – April 7, 2013
Heavy workload. High stress, high demand position which keeps me sharp and on my toes. I learn something new constantly, which is wonderful. Supportive executive management. The children are everyone's focus, and that makes the culture something special.

Great company and training
Resident Chaplain, Clinical Pastoral Education (Former Employee), Austin, TX – January 26, 2013
Pros: great opportunity
Mine was a one yr. residency with Seton, and I wanted more!!! But there were no open positions in my field at the time. The training I received to become a chaplain was phenominal. Most of the nurses, SW, and other staff I worked with were beyond comparison. Although the pay was not great, it was a residency and we were paid more than many other chaplain – more... residents. Professional pay is good. Training by professors and chaplain staff was super. I appreciate the opportunity I had to be with Seton. – less

Well established not for profit hosptal system that is dedicated to providing quality healthcare to the community
Intern, Decision Support and Consulting (Former Employee), Austin, TX – December 28, 2012
I greatly enjoyed working for Seton Family of Hospitals. The culture of the organization is entrenched with diverse and dedicated individuals. My involvement on my particular project taught me valuable information pertaining to process improvements, Six Sigma methodology, and the role of a consultant and project manager. The days were never the same – more... and overall the management was successful at guiding associates through change. I enjoyed the challenges and learning new ideas to overcome obstacles in the current healthcare industry. – less

Full time Addictions Charge Nurse (Former Employee), Troy, NY – October 30, 2012
Management is not proactive for their employees. They tend to burn people out without concern for that.

Great company to get career experience with.
Biomedical Tech II (Former Employee), Austin, TX – October 21, 2012
Pros: great people to work with.
Cons: lack of communication between management.
Typical day at work is unknown. Varies day to day depending on work flow and customer needs. Never a dull moment.

I have learned more about the management roll.

Management has been a come and go process. Lots of moving around and roll switching.

Co-wokers are all ways willing to help out and work as a team to accomplish everything from the easy task – more... to the most challenging.

The hardest part of the job is knowing what to do with the "gray area" when it presents itself. – less

Productive , Fun/New Experiences
Personal Assistant/Home Health Care (Former Employee), Austin, TX – August 14, 2012
Pros: offered free luches; long breaks
Cons: weird time schedules
At Seton Family Of Hospitals , It was a great and new experience. I cleaned rooms, As well as making the open space comfortable for the patients as if they were my parents and i knew how important it was to make their first visit their best visit. The manager was very nice , Helped with any questions that needed to be answered. The Co workers as well. – more... Always had special treats in the lounge for us which was thoughtful and generous. The only part of the job that was hard was lifting the beds to clean under and getting every speak of the dirt. Even parts you couldnt spot. But the most Enjoyable part was working as a team with some of the other employees in the same room. There were good and bad days ,But i stuck it out and stayed as positive as possible. – less

This was a dysfunctional company.
DIRECTOR OF NUTRITION & FOOD SERVICES (Former Employee), New York, NY – August 12, 2012
Pros: it was nice and very rewarding to improve the health status of many children.
Cons: too much politics.
This was not a very good experience due to the games being played by the executive staff. They seemed publicly to care for the mission of the agency but made decisions that would promote the agendas of the senior staff at the expence of the staff and middle managers.
Many people who were unqualified or inexperienced and sometimes incompetant were put – more... in charge of departments or programs. – less

Fast paced, energetic fun environment, with wonderful coworkers as well as patients
Operations Assistant (Former Employee), Kokomo, IN – June 13, 2012
Pros: getting to see the smiles of the people we helped
Cons: they moved to lafayette in and it was too far for me to commute.
started at 6 a.m. and ended at 4 p.m.

How to organize the nurses and doctors so the unit ran smoothly. Entered doctor orders, retrieved lab print outs from St. Joe and South Bend Medical, ordered all linens and supplies for unit. Communicated with dietary regarding special diets for patients. Assisted with patient care. Multi-line Phone triage, clerical – more... duties, troubleshooting copiers and printers.

Managers/doctors/nurses/patients were all wonderful

Hardest part, would be when you lost a patient. Some were with us for 6 months or more. They became like family as did their families. It was hard to lose them.

Most enjoyable: Taking care of everyone! Keeping them organized and all aspects of unit running smoothly. – less

Rewarding to give back to the community
Community /Volunteer (Current Employee), Kyle, TX – April 13, 2012
Pros: free drinks, flexible schedule, variety of jobs to train for, it is never boring..
Cons: n/a
Great customer care interactions, you get to direct and assist individuals, being a team player by working in areas that need the most assistance from Administration to Patient Care including the ER services. Meeting new individuals and supporting them in time of emotional duress. It is rewarding even if all your offering is smile or holding someone – more... hand. The staff in the areas I worked show kindness and are truly giving people. It can be a fast pace and excitable at times but, working in this new environment is definitely rewarding as a volunteer. – less
