"Nearly a decade at this company. WellStar compensation is intentionally aligned with median market pay, so talent is not attracted or retained often. There is an excess of middle management and because access/authorities are compartmentalized, resolving issues usually requires concerted effort between several teams. It causes very inefficient resolution times. There is little accountability or quality control in terms of employee performance. Just went to high-deductible HSAs for insurance."

"Kennestone Hospital is limited for opportunities with hard work and knowledge seldom appreciated. Many knee jerk reactions from management. Consider other employers if you can drive out of the area. Gave up other opportunity and it was a huge career mistake. Turnover rate seems above the norm. The facility is fair if you just want a paycheck and keep your head and eyes cast downward."

"I found that at WellStar, it was not so much as to what you knew, but who liked what you had to say. I've worked in larger companies that had far less politics than this company. This was by far the worst one. Could never trust what was said by management or count on having all the information when starting projects."
