Svantaggi
1) If you are a new grad nurse, be very careful before signing contract. Our cohort was told one thing - and ended up being offered a contract that exceeded what we were expecting by 30 months and $10,000. This totaled a 2.5 year, $20,000 (early termination penalty). We were asked to sign the contract 1 month after being hired. It was difficult at that point to turn it away having turned down all other offers. 2) New graduate nurses - work anywhere else before Emory. DO NOT sign the contract. You will be stuck making pennies. $23/hour is not competitive especially considering the responsibility Emory nurses shoulder. If you really want to work at Emory, work someplace else first for a year then apply to avoid the residency requirements and contract. 3) If your boss just doesn't like you this will affect your raises and there is very little you can do about it. 4) Don't be fooled by the name - if Emory can cut corners to save cost they will. Nursing is expected to make up the gap.
