PAs: Does Your Job Fulfill Your Expectations?
To measure how satisfied you are with your work, we surveyed more than 1,300 clinicians like you. Compare your experiences to those of your colleagues, starting with the key question: Would you do it again?
95% of PA respondents work as an employee; of these, 41% work in hospitals, and 31% work in physician offices.1 Therefore, it is gratifying to see that hospital settings and physician groups are satisfying places to work. In addition, this data has not changed significantly since last year.

BENEFITS
As you are aware, having access to the right benefits can go a long way to increasing job satisfaction. In addition to salary as a choice, we listed 30 benefits choices—insurance coverage, additional compensation opportunities, reimbursements, and other—asking which are offered by your employer (access) and which, in lieu of a modest increase in salary, are most important regardless of access. Your responses allowed us to identify the top 7 among your peers.
