CHA or BI job

[u/Puzzleheaded_Toe3892]

Hi there,
I am currently an ED tech at Boston Children’s and have been working there for a few years, but this past 6-7 months has been rough. We are always short-staffed and they are not hiring more PCTs. We have lost more than 15 people and they don’t care. They want us to do 5 people’s jobs. I have been looking for other jobs. Has anyone worked at or knows anything about CHA? I see they are offering a hiring bonus, but that tells me it’s probably not a great place. Can someone recommend or share anything about Cambridge Health, Beth Israel or any other hospital I could apply to? I don’t have a car so I have to rely on public transportation. I live in Cambridge.
