The aim of this research was to identify the reasons for satisfaction and dissatisfaction among oncology nursing professionals working in Brazil and Portugal. A descriptive and qualitative study was conducted with nine Portuguese nurses and 17 Brazilian nursing professionals, using a questionnaire and interview, which were analyzed according to Bardin's proposition. Satisfaction, in both scenarios, was associated, above all, to the patient and the treatment process, and the bond established between the professional and the individual demanding care. Dissatisfaction resulted primarily from the extensive exposure to high workload and to the deaths of oncology patients. The importance of considering the subjectivity that permeates the work scenario is highlighted, which can have vast and, sometimes, costly implications.

It could be suggested that persistent workforce problems in the early childhood (EC) field in Australia – such as job satisfaction and turnover may be related to ineffective leadership practices, low pay and lack of professional acknowledgement. In this article we report on a small qualitative study completed in 2017, investigating 12 educators’ experiences of what could be described as ‘dark side’ leadership practices. Purposeful sampling was used to select educators who had expressed dissatisfaction with leaders on a Facebook forum for early childhood educators. Findings revealed all of Oplatka’s elements of ‘dark side’ leadership practices and ideologies at work, with the addition of two new types of ‘dark side’ leadership practices – ‘acts of courage’ and ‘meat in the sandwich’. The evidence these data provide of regulatory breaches, discrimination and bullying highlight the critical need for action by employers, regulatory authorities and unions to better support educators and their leaders in their work environments.

Nurse certification became available to nurses working in the practice area of multiple sclerosis (MS) in 2002. However, the impact of certification on the MS nurse's role and both satisfaction and dissatisfaction with the certified role have not yet been determined, which was the purpose of this study. With a qualitative study design and an international sample of 168 certified MS nurses, data from open-ended questions were analyzed regarding role change, job satisfaction, and job dissatisfaction. Findings indicated enhanced role change and job satisfaction regarding increased autonomy, colleagueship, leadership roles, and primary care nursing. Dissatisfaction for some was attributed to insufficient resources and benefits, along with administrator failure to recognize the value and importance of certified nurses.
