NYCPAC Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 Benefits sound decent. Hourly rate isn’t great. ICU pa here w 7yr experience making $79/hr with alternate weekends (which are 2hrs shorter than weekdays). 20shifts per 6wk period. No extra holiday pay and OT offered at flat rate of $1600/shift (by the time taxes taken out its legit like $850). With that being said I accepted this job at $55/hr with 5yrs under my belt and felt that was a crap offer but I wanted to stay in ICU and in my new city. I’ve managed over $30k in raises in about 2.5yrs. If it’s what you want get your foot in the door and go up from there!

airslant Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 I'm confused by how you wrote the overtime and holiday pay. OT is 1x so it's the same or 59x2? I'm assuming the second which seems like a great deal if you can get OT. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk I meant anything exceeding 40 hr/week count as OT and rate is 1x hourly salary so 59x1 for OT..not great. I guess I would have to try leaving on time lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not very hip and/or with it in regards to the $$$ of living there in NYC. What length of shifts are you working? Expectation of procedures? General ICU vs CTICU? NYCPAC will likely have a much better idea of whats appropriate over there, I'm in the opposite corner of the country working nights for the most part, q6 weeks I work 4 days (weird rotation). (10) 12 hour shifts/month for ~$104/hr. Standard bennies, 401k/457b, OT @ $1800/shift Mixed ICU, lines, tubes expected Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
