Montgomery County Hospital District is a great example of a special district that has outlived its original charter.
MCHD is a Hospital District without a hospital but it lives on to grow its bureaucracy and operate its approximately 35 ambulances and keep its bank account awash with taxpayer cash. Its an organization that pays its CEO an obscene amount to manage its functions.
A few years back I looked into GLASSDOOR reviews to see what comments, good or bad were left by employees and reminded of that today reviewed comments for MCHD. It seem the CEO is not the only one who is fat and happy.
What follows is a round up, an amalgamation of the anonymous comments dating between 2013-2017 found there.
