Unappreciated and overworked

Medical Business Clerk (Employé actuel) - Hamilton, ON - 26 octobre 2023

Staff is overworked, usually understaffed as everyone is burnt out regardless of their position. Management gives no recognition for a job well done. Managers are robots with no personality. You are not an individual there, you’re just a number.

Points positifs

Most co-workers are supportive

Points négatifs

Missed breaks, short staffed, favouritism and nepotism

Not valued

Lab Technician (Employé actuel) - Hamilton, ON - 19 octobre 2023

You are literally just a number and not valued for what you do. Staff tend to be very clicky and rather than support one another, back stab. Management is no better.

Mediocre Management and Organization

Registered Pharmacy Technician (Employé actuel) - Hamilton, ON - 18 octobre 2023

Management making decisions without having staff input. Many positions that are not physician or nursing aren't recognized as much. Benefits not great considering how much we pay into them.Fair pay compared to other hospitals in the GTHA.

It's all Politics

Business Clerk (Ancien employé) - Hamilton, ON - 30 juillet 2023

It's all politics at HHS. It's more about who you know and who likes you. Management has their favorites. You will not advance here. HR department is corrupt. Some staff are miserable as they've seen alot of cutbacks and changes and not for the good. The Hospital itself is not clean. Patient care no longer exists and it's unfortunate as it's outta our hands. My coworkers are what keep me going everyday.

Points positifs

Hoop

Points négatifs

Great staff, horrible management

RN (Employé actuel) - Hamilton, ON - 21 juillet 2023

The nurses care for each other, great team work. Management however is toxic, no support and no appreciation. So many nurses are leaving for this reason, and the corporation is extremely short on nurses, no retention.

People can be awful

Environmental Aide (Employé actuel) - Hamilton, ON - 6 juin 2023

The place as a whole is decent to work. Not all staff are nice but a good chunk of them are, not all managers are nice but a good chunk are, it honestly comes down to you and who you are. Don't get my wrong they're some great employees but you'll also have your bad apples. Just be true to yourself and don't let anyone walk all over you!!

Points positifs

Great co workers, some great managers, some patients are great

Points négatifs

Always short staffed, you have to pick up the slack if someone calls in, management not always appreciativr when you go above and beyond

Work Sucks

Registered Pharmacy Technician (Employé actuel) - Hamilton, ON - 20 mai 2023

It was apparent before covid19…..now it’s very apparent…..no work life balance. The corporation does not support their staff, they keep dumping more work on top of the work you’re already struggling to do. They don’t listen to staff regarding anything and are just out to make HHS look like a desirable place to work. Benefits are mediocre considering what you pay for and the fee rates have gone up 9% this year, but haven’t changed what’s offered or covered. Wish our pay went up 9%!!! After working for this corporation for over 15 years, my pay has increased minimally, $5 difference resulting in a $0.33 (33 cents/year/hour)

Good if in union or management

Audio Visual Technician (Ancien employé) - Hamilton, ON - 6 avril 2023

Heavy on administration which reduces service for patients and funding for much needed beds, staff etc. Too many managers compared to workers. Job security for admin or health staff if unionized. Wages are good.

Points positifs

Not stressful

Points négatifs

Rigid job description

Na

Mla (Ancien employé) - Hamilton, ON - 6 avril 2023

Loved working here until the pandemic when they fired everyone for making a person choice on our own health and safety. Don't feel safe being pressured to do something against my own will and judgement

Very bad management

Security Guard (Ancien employé) - Hamilton, ON - 15 mars 2023

Very very toxic work environment. Lots of gossip and scrutiny amongst co workers and management. I would not recommend working here for long just grab some experience and take it somewhere else. People that have been here 15 plus years in particular tend to be controlling and toxic towards staff members and like to GOSSIP a lot like high school bullies.

Points positifs

22.50 for a security job

Points négatifs

No paid breaks

Benefits, Pension and wages

Registered Practical Nurse (Employé actuel) - Hamilton, ON - 17 janvier 2023

I have worked here for years and love the area I work in now but long time to get here and the wages are not great. Get paid better other places. Just wish the pay wages where higher for the amount of time you work hard and crazy and no work life balance

Points positifs

Fast-paced place to work

Clerical Support (Employé actuel) - Hamilton, ON - 17 janvier 2023

I would recommend HHS if you enjoy working in a fast-paced environment and enjoy face-to-face contact with out-patients. Good work-life balance. Unionized environment so seniority is everything if you want to move to another position. Overall positive experience.

Points positifs

no overtime, good work-life balance

Points négatifs

some areas are very fast-paced

Overworked and underappreciated

Registered Nurse (Ancien employé) - Hamilton, ON - 13 janvier 2023

Total disregard for the medical privacy of staff and personal decisions staff members make regarding their own bodies.They clearly didn't care for the quality of care either, since they preferred to fire experienced and qualified medical staff and remain short-staffed but "immune" from covid than to have adequate staff levels.

Points positifs

Plenty of hours available as well as overtime and opportunity to work in wide range of settings

Points négatifs

Disregard to personal medical information of staff members, efforts of staff who go above and beyond are not appreciated

Decent

Business Clerk (Ancien employé) - Hamilton, ON - 21 décembre 2022

Pay was decent, Vax mandate ruined a lot of careers. A lot of people we're fired based on a medical decision. No one seemed to care, Union has been slow to represent.

Points positifs

once a year free small coffee....

Points négatifs

Vax mandate - Mask Mandate - no free parking - costly food options - No perks
