Howard County General Hospital Employee Job Reviews in the United States

"I worked for Howard County General for 8 years and found it a good place to work for the most part. The management was fairly good when I started, but had declined towards the end. The main reason for the decline was the fact that Johns Hopkins started managing the hospital. They cut a lot of things to the bare bones, and tried to save money which caused the staff to have to do way more with way less. I would still return there to work, but I am now aware of the stress involved."
