Pros

Unit is nice but less help will be offered to travelers. For the most part they follow AWHONN staffing guidelines. The staff are friendly for the most part but very cliche.

Cons

The staff is inexperienced and travelers will be given the hardest assignments because the staff can’t handle them. Lots of pettiness and gossip all around the unit. Nurses refuse to work with each other or help each other if they don’t like the person. Easy job but taxing from navigating work relationships.
