UT Southwestern Insights

Just moved to Dallas, wondering if anyone has any experience working at this hospital? 
Positive or negative reviews?

Also, trying to find a job in cardiac PCU or cardiac ICU on days though and only have seen night shifts posted, curious if they only do day shift by seniority?? 
 

anyone who knows anything, feedback greatly appreciated thank you!!

Hi! I've worked at UTSW for ~4 years in one of their ICUs. Our pay is lower than some other hospitals but we have really good benefits. I also did some travel nursing in the area a few years ago, and having seen first hand the state of some of their ICUs, it's a fair trade off. 

Our CVICU has a decent turnover rate, but a lot of that is d/t degree progression (which is the same for my unit). There are a lot of personalities in the CV but I hear the team morale has gotten a lot better. I don't know anything about their shifts being offered, a couple of years ago they were hiring for days but that's probably changed. We don't really have PCUs here but some tele floors take PC patients and have a decreased patient assignment if they have a PC patient, if that makes sense. Our cardiac tele floors are 9G, I want to say 9O and 10G but don't quote me on that.
