biomedical dept.

Biomedical Engineer (Former Employee) - Montréal, QC - 25 July 2023

First of all there’s more bureaucracy and politics than fixing issues bywork. The management team is unfit for the dept. they all trained to work like purchasing dept. there’s no respect for this dept. due to management and hierarchy. Directors from other dept. are managing the decisions. There is no engineers if there is, their code of oiq is not respected on daily basis. Everyone using influences their power to override your work scope and management has no real experience to work in this dept. all team members including external members on projects are lazy, incapable of doing minimum of their job, not willing and taking responsibility for their parts. Nothing is documented so no trial of work or responsibility to be taken. Biomedical does everything and everybody’s tasks in project due to no scope of work while everyone else has and no boundaries by it’s management. Your a doormat. You are forced to take responsibility for everyone but decisions made , you are not included. The management team their main goal is to keep their job, so they will throw you under bus or push you in uncomfortable areas for their mistakes and others. Your overworked, underpaid, disrespected by all, no resources or training and everyone frustrated and backstabbing. There’s no support by management, you are on your own. You need play politics to survive in this hospital. Only plus point is that you can work from home and get away with doing nothing if you know how play the system. This hospital is for people who play politics, lazy. This place is not for smart and professional people. You will -

Environnement stressant et une culture robotique.

C’est un environnement de travail stressant injustice et favoritisme

Préposée à l'entretien ménager (Former Employee) - Montréal, QC - 24 April 2023

J’ai rien contre l’université de santé de McGill c’est les superviseurs de mon département qui ont du favoritisme et qui gèrent mal malheureusement.

Favoritisme, stresse, …

La pression sur le réseau public est très grande

Infirmière clinicienne (Current Employee) - Montréal, QC - 10 April 2023

Les gestionnaires sont compréhensifs, mais la pression est telle sur le réseau public actuellement que c'est devenu j humain d'être une infirmière soignante. Les RH semblent déconnecté de ce qu'on vit sur le terrain, nabque de personnel à tous les niveaux, incluant le syndicat. Les retours progressifs après congé de maladie sont difficiles à respecter (et ce n'est pas de la mauvaise foi de la part de la plupart des gestionnaires) à cause de la pression lié au travail et du rendement attendu. Nous ne travaillons pas dabs une usine de montage, mais avec des humains. Malheureusement, l'humain doit souvent être mis de côté (ce qui est selon moi la partie la plus importante du soin) afin d'arriver à administrer les traitements à tous. Les soins infirmiers sont devenus presque impossible à administrer, selon mes standards professionnels. Le réseau s'enfonce, les soignants tout comme le personnel de soutien s'épuisent. Nous faisons de notre possible afin de rencontrer les besoins de tous nos patients, mais c'est rendu impossible et invivable. Peut-être que certains secteurs sont mieux, nais les soins directs aux patients ne dont plus ce que c'était il y a 20 ans.

Over worked, under paid and under appreciated

Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) (Current Employee) - Montréal, QC - 19 January 2023

A lot of work needs to be done to change the work environment as it stands. Management has completely dropped the ball. Staff is treated less than humane, there is no appreciation or support.

Great place to work but pay is low

Health Care Worker (Former Employee) - Montréal, QC - 15 November 2022

The hospital itself is a great place work in because it's new and most staff are friendly. But the pay is very low for health care workers especially if you just started (Nurses, LPNs, PABs). The parking is expensive, the union contribution is also expensive and the group insurance is expensive with a low coverage. Factories in Quebec have better group insurancies. Also, their overtime pay is so complicated they impose a certain eligibility criteria before you can avail the double pay like you shouldn't call sick etc.

Cons

Expensive parking, low pay, expensive union contribution, poor insurance coverage, complicated overtime pay

Aucune culture d'entreprise

Approvisionnement (Former Employee) - Montréal, QC - 12 November 2022

Les gens sont stressés et comme notre travail a un impact sur la vie d'autrui, on fait souvent des exceptions à la loi. Aucune formation reçue a mon arrivée. Aucun esprit d'équipe. Les gestionnaires sont trop occupés et il y a une lenteur administrative incroyable. Il a deux types d'employés : ceux qui sont là depuis longtemps et ne font rien pour t'aider. Ceux qui viennent d'arriver mais n'ont aucune connaissance des procédures puisque les anciens ne collaborent pas.Les collègues sont absents ou te ghost. Les gens du technique (infirmiers et docteurs) sont des clients internes difficiles avec beaucoup de fierté.Malgré les avantages sociaux, tu n'auras rien d'autre du CUSM que ce qui est négocié dans la convention collective. Le cadeau de Noël est une carte cadeau de 15$ chez Walmart. Mon avis est seulement pour le service de DAL.

Pros

None

Cons

Pas organisé, pas d'intégration

Broken machine that chews you up and spits you out

Medical Records Clerk (Current Employee) - Montréal, QC - 17 October 2022

There's a real disconnect between the management and employees. Many many times there were decisions made by upper admin. staff that was based on budget cuts and had no regard for staff nor patients.They are gapping full time employee's to save money and it's burning us out. We are constantly fighting for our raises since my 15 year's with this employer. You are insignificant to them and when you fall sick from burn out they will simply replace you.

Fascinant la neuro-chirurgie mais…

Agente administrative classe 2 (Current Employee) - Montréal, QC - 5 August 2022

Un emploi comme agente administrative qui se spécialise en neuro-chirurgie, c’est spécial. On apprend à tous les jours. Mais la hiérarchie dans un hôpital, ça tue. On va te rappeler que tu es seulement agente administrative. On ne te payera jamais à ta juste valeur dans le secteur public. Démoralisant de faire autant la différence et d’être payé moins qu’une cheffe caissière dans une épicerie.

Environnement de travail intéressant mais toujours sous la pression et le stress

Infirmière auxiliaire (Former Employee) - ELCV Montréal - 27 July 2022

Organisation mal faite, sans synchronicité conduisant à des situation stressantes. Pauses non prises, ou partiellement prises. Coordination parfois étouffante, brusque, demande trop souvent des changements dernière seconde en faisant trop souvent appel à toute notre flexibilité. Culture basée sur la préférence des employés. Programme différentiel conduisant aux favoritisme.

Collaborative workplace, I've been told that english speakingworkplace would tend to be more polite and agreable, I wouldbe inclined to concur.

Specialist Clinician (Former Employee) - CUSM- Glen Site - 10 May 2022

A typical day would involve looking at theschedule in the morning to see what bench you would be assigned, then starting your workday.Depending on the bench, coordinating breaksand letting people know when you were on break so others would be able to know when they could contact you was the usual practice followed by staff.I learned a lot about the protocols and software in use in a hospital environment.The hardest part was telling no for extra tasks or coordinating with my managers about the work because everyone would frequently befacing spikes in workload with the Sars-CoV-2 waves.

Pros

Two mandatory breaks, 1 hour lunch and 30 min break, Repetitive tasks (was a plus for me)

Cons

Since it is a 24 hour service, with results expected to be produced in short turnaround time, Phone calls sometime, but rarely, disrespectful, Frequent protocol changes and modifications
