Meet the organization: AORN is a national, nonprofit membership association with 107 employees that represents more than 160,000 perioperative nurses across the country. The association provides nursing education, guidelines and practice resources for nurses, and a significant majority of employees cite their belief in AORN's mission as the primary reason they work there. In fact, 100 percent of employees responded to a survey noting that their work is more than just a job to them — they are motivated by the cause to keep surgical patients and healthcare workers safe.
Added benefits: AORN provides competitive compensation and benefits, including a PTO program with at least four weeks of vacation and two "floating" holidays per year. All employees are eligible for tuition reimbursement after six months of employment so they can pursue undergraduate and graduate degrees. AORN also offers an onsite fitness facility, weekly onsite yoga classes, an annual baseball outing with the Colorado Rockies, holiday parties and monthly employee recognition parties.
