Emory Children's Center Employee Reviews for Nurse Practitioner

"Management needs to spend more time in the trenches."

What do you like about working at Emory Children's Center?

"The academic environment is second to none. There is a lot of research being performed. There is always some type of professional education available."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Interviewing stinks. Interview is with 2 people who are 'certified' in their brand of behavioral interviewing. The 'tell me when' type of thing, except they are so busy writing down what you say that it's very disconcerting, b/c you are talking to the tops of their heads. Occasionally, the interview is with the MD's that are hiring for their dept., then it is a 'regular' interview."

What don't you like about working at Emory Children's Center?

"Top down style of mgmt - do more with less. Very stressful environment, especially for non-providers. Providers - MD's & mid-levels are treated very well. RN's & ancillary staff - not so much."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Mgmt, especially at the clinic and dept levels are either incompetent, or have been there forever so are hard to get rid of - or know who's butt to kiss. There are always new 'initiatives' being planned, where everyone goes to meetings, spends tons of time developing the initiatives. Ultimately, nothing changes."
