Toxic
Medical Laboratory Assistant (Former Employee) - Cambridge, ON - 31 January 2023
No room for advancement. Toxic environment with no work life balance. I can only speak about 1 department. No equality for Union because it is not written in the contract.

Insights into Cambridge Memorial Hospital
Areas for improvement
- General feeling of work happiness
- Support from manager
- Energizing work tasks
Management has treated me well! I have no issues with them.
Environmental Service Worker (Current Employee) - Cambridge, ON - 19 October 2022
Depending on the job it can be quite hectic, but overall is a great place to work.Workplace culture is good.I’ve had a great experience working here, the only thing that I find weird is the fact that Seniority is calculated by hours work instead of employee start date. ( I think this should be changed in my opinion) My overall work experience has been great!!

Short staffed, under-appreciated, low pay
RPN Inpatient Surgery (Current Employee) - Cambridge, ON - 3 August 2022
Doing more with less resources. Short staffed. Low pay for the amount of skills/tasks you do every day. Low moral amongst staff. No appreciation for nurses from other healthcare professionals, patients, etc.

Receptionist/Screener. (Former Employee) - Cambridge, ON - 12 July 2022
Loved working here. The benefits are great. Loved working when I can choose my own hours. They value your performance and reimburse accordingly. Had a great manager and supervisor to work with.

Overall major discrimination/lack of ethics
Registered Cardiology Technologist (Former Employee) - Cambridge, ON - 29 May 2022
Turned their back on their dedicated staff and dismissed them like garbage for standing up for bodily autonomy and informed consent. The two most important things in healthcare. Very heartbreaking to see nurses and other staff of over 20 years service treated this way.

Registered Practical Nurse (Current Employee) - Cambridge, ON - 23 May 2022
Good place to work as a new graduate to start up your career. Always a staff shortage. Management is helpful and the colleagues are also very hel but it all depends on which unit you are

Good people, low pay for trades.
Maintenance Worker (Former Employee) - Cambridge, ON - 2 March 2022
Good place to work if you want job stability, people are nice and managers are easy to get along with. The pay for trades is low though and the union is useless, just there to collect their dues.
Pros
Good work life balance
Cons
Low pay for trades

Ok work once you get the hang of it. Terrible scheduling.
Patient Porter (Former Employee) - Cambridge, ON - 5 January 2022
Fairly straightforward work but can get busy. Sometimes it feels like you are not respected by a lot of the other staff around the hospital (nurses, doctors, tech's). Scheduling was awful, you can get full time hours if you have no life outside of work but your schedule will be all over the place. They will book you for a day or 2 per week and then call you every day asking you to come in (I did not apply for an on-call job). It was not uncommon to be understaffed, I don't understand why there were always shifts to call in for while simultaneously not getting hours scheduled.

you are just a number
Staff Nurse (Former Employee) - staff nurse - 19 October 2021
you are just a number, management doesnt respond to your emails or accommodate in anyway. you work short always and are never valued. your words are useless as they have deaf ears. They are dont listen to any staff and are unwilling to change anything. there are some doctors who were very dismissive of the nurses .
Pros
none

Do it for rhe pay only
Housekeeper (Former Employee) - Cambridge, ON - 5 January 2021

Pros
Pays is good
Cons
Coworkers are not helpful and very nasty

I had excellent co-workers. People I will never forget.
Staff Nurse (Former Employee) - Cambridge, ON - 1 October 2020
I was able to learn much on the job, CMH afforded that atmosphere. The ICU was busy and for the most part rewarding. There were many changes within the management therefore sometimes it was unbalanced, however my co-workers made up for the disruptions most of the time. The staff is what makes this company a worthwhile workplace.
Pros
Excellent opportunities to learn on site.
Cons
Sometimes upper management was too top heavy.

Too much office politics but that is typical.
Medical Transcriptionist (Former Employee) - Cambridge, ON - 3 June 2020
There is poor communication between departments in some aspects. For example in case of having an unscheduled day off the message is not relayed to the appropriate peoplr.Otherwise the pay and benefits are good.
Pros
Regular schedule and no overtime in last few years. Fairly good pay, benefits and paid vacation.
Cons
Poor interdepartmental communication.

Good place to work at
Préposée aux bénéficiaires (Former Employee) - Montréal, QC - 19 April 2020
Very pleased with work at Cambridge. Staff is very nice. Nothing is easy when it comes to elderly care but patients at Cambridge are semi assistance. There is high fall risk of residents in condos. Facility is big and you need to run between 3 buildings. Night shift is the best to work. Quiet
Pros
Residents are very pleasant people to work with
Cons
Low pay
