Pros
The campus location is nice and safe. It's easy to use PTO to take days off in my unit. Food in the employees' cafeteria is budget-friendly. A lot of staff work remotely, so it is super easy to find a space in the parking lot.
Cons
Before I worked at Mayo, I thought the negative reviews about Mayo on Glassdoor would not represent my experience at Mayo. Unfortunately, I experienced something that I did not hope for and felt the same pain. There is insufficient support with high expectations to handle a heavy workload once poor-quality training is complete. Narrow-minded employees contributed to the toxic work culture in my unit. While I was tolerant of my toxic co-worker for a while, it caused me a lot of stress and anxiety. If you experience a similar situation at Mayo Clinic, do not put up with yourself, because your tolerance may not bring you a positive outcome automatically. Managers have very poor leadership skills. If you see a high turnover in a team, that's a red flag. While salary and benefits seem better compared with other hospitals, it is not worthwhile to sacrifice your health and job satisfaction to earn them. The managers claim they care about staff's well-being, but actions speak louder than words. You have to use your PTO to get your holidays paid. A lot of backstabbing and ego. To stay humble is not appreciated. Communication is horrible among different departments. The needs of physicians and patients come first. Staff may be not treated with respect sometimes. Some doctors are very difficult to work with. While the Office of Diversity and Inclusion sent a lot of messages for diversity and inclusion, I did not feel my work culture was diverse and inclusive.
