DON’T do it - Anonymous employee UPMC Employee Review

Just don’t. Don’t apply here, don’t accept a position here, it will suck the soul out of you. Across the board whether you are in a corporate setting or hospital staff, the entire company is severely understaffed and underpaid (even before Covid). UPMC would rather pocket it’s profits to further monopolize the job industry in PA (as the largest employer) and continue to build new fancy structures and take over more hospital chains instead of paying their employees decent wages. They expect you to meet all goals and compliancy whenever it realistically would take 2-3 people to maintain their expectations (but they want 1 person to cover it). Get used to working 70-80 hours a week with no overtime pay and no worries worklife balance and poor sleep and mental health. I watched several coworkers over the years take medical leaves because their mental health suffered so badly working here. Massive turnover, a revolving door of new employees being hired with little knowledge and veteraned staff leaving out of frustration. Terrible training, thrown to the wolves, acquiring caseloads already several months behind right out of the gate. You are set up for failure. Micromanaged. And yet even though you feel like a slave or a robot you still barely make enough money to get your bills paid. Absolutely do not do it if you care about having a life to live and maintaining your mental health.
