Pros

There are a lot of hard-working, intelligent folks working at BJC. They carry a sense of pride in everything that they do, which in turn does a great job inspiring their peers to work hard as well.

Cons

The lack of communication throughout the entire organization is appalling, to say the very least. It starts from the very top and trickles down to the very bottom. Over 100 employees were laid off without notice, with no explanation other than a typical canned response about downsizing. They value money, not employees. It's sad to see one of St. Louis' most trusted healthcare organizations transforming into nothing more than a greedy monopoly. Overall, the moral compass of this company is so broken, I'm surprised half of the senior leadership team can find their way to work in the morning. They prey on fear of their subordinates losing their jobs, and use it to strong arm them into compliance. My advice is to stay far away until the internal issues at this organization are corrected.
