not supportive of employees
clinical support (Former Employee), Vail – March 27, 2013
Pros: good retirement matching
Cons: expensive to live in area; administration's culture; no advancement
Administration was not supportive of employees- taking away benefits, cutting pay, cutting budgets for conferences. There is a lot of fear because those who have spoken their opinions were let go. There is a lot of turnover at the mid-management level. No chances for advancement. On the other hand, the working staff are great and care for the patients.

Authoritarian leadership styles
Prefer not to say (Former Employee), Vail, CO – December 15, 2012
Because of the authoritarian leadership styles of senior management, working at Vail Valley Medical Center was demoralizing at best. Employees are not valued, and seen as an expendable commodity. With their alarming employee turnover, patient safety comes to mind. It was ironic to me working for a hospital provided the least healthy job environment – more... one could imagine. – less

Vail OR services could be hazardous to your career.
travel RN (Former Employee), NY – November 15, 2012
Pros: beautiful mt town.
Cons: written up if you're 1 minute late, no parking ever @ hospital! sent home with lots of loss of hours.
BE VERY CAREFUL.......worked there last year, they fired 3 top managers in OR services and ICU. Hired 2 new people from Denver that are absolutely the worst managers I've seen in 20+ years. Out of 14 RNs in PACU, 11 left within the first yr with new .manager. Micro-managing @ it's absolute worst! MDs and the other staff are great but hospital environment – more... is wicked. Let go their entire anesthesia MDs that were there for yrs and hired all new, and then fired some of them within months of relocating to Vail.WATCH YOUR BACK!!!! Manager gave entire PACU horrible evals that went on permanent work record and litrally destroyed careers. Administration totally backs this manager, despite numerous complaints to HR. Try Frisco or Aspen, seriously!! Most of staff and MDs are great but all are afraid for their jobs. So sad, it should be the perfect job, too bad! – less
