Gundersen Health System Reviews

Wage is very low, loses a lot of good employees because of this.

You really are a number when you're an RN at Gundersen. Members of clinical management once informed us there are three nursing schools nearby and you can easily be replaced if you don't like the way things are. There are no incentives to perform beyond mediocrity aside from being shouldering additional committee/project work. The pay is not competitive (~$5+ an hour deficit) with other organizations that draw nurses from the region like Mayo, UW Health and the Twin Cities organizations. Experience isn't consistently a benefit when you come from another organization in terms of pay. Everyone gets the same raises across the board year after year creating a wage stagnation issue for staff (but a boon for the organization). Problem employees are moved around departments until people stop bringing concerns to management.
