Vantaggi
You can find dedicated, respectful colleagues working against the system to make patients lives better. In Atlanta and Georgia, you can still impress other employers that you worked for Emory.
Svantaggi
Agree with others on low pay, poor management (MD and non MD). Patients dont get quality care because of leadership/management, and docs sometimes scour for resources to help patients like in third world country where all money goes to chairs and managers for their BMWs. Emory also spends more money on PR than quality- pays PR firms to suppress/remove bad internet reviews from search results, and add positive reviews you read here. One former director of communication wrote an op-ed on how poorly patients are actually treated and she and the matter were completely silenced by Emory PR and their media connections within a day. Recently lost a malpractice suit when a young man died in the sleep lab supervised by cheap contractor - jury awarded patient's family $13 million. I have never worked for a company that spends more money presenting a fake image than fixing the real problems.
