Pros

Worked with some really wonderful people, especially creatives and mid-level management who really try to be innovative, collaborative and passionate.

Cons

Upper management are bullies who only care about social status, sycophants and where you went to school, not your abilities or technical achievements or skillset. Have no appreciation for what it takes to execute their whim projects, no planning and any feedback or request for support is treated as annoyance or burden. Basically everyone's motivating factor is not to get screamed at by Harold. They forced out my boss of over 10 years and took a wrecking ball to the department without any knowledge of the platforms of processes of how to operate. Almost everyone I worked with there has either been fired or quit and are all much happier. Also expected to be available 24/7.

Pros

Dedicated staff truly cares for the work they do. Clinical staff is extremely knowledgeable and willing to take time to teach or explain the work they do. Opportunities to receive invaluable experience interacting with clients and families. Access to learning opportunities through lectures hosting onsite clinical staff and outside professionals in the field. If you're an open advocate for yourself and ask for learning opportunities, the clinical and administrative staff are accomodating. Many administrative staff go on to graduate school in varied clinical fields (including me), and working at CMI provides great insight to help in your future clinical experience

Cons

Upper management is not always transparent. Could use better communication. Can be extremely demanding hours (at least when I was there) Clientele or upper management can be difficult to deal with (this a great learning experience and opportunity as long as you have a tough skin). Can be challenging to juggle different expectations from administrative protocols, upper management, and clinical staff. High turn-over rate in the administration department because there's very limited opportunities for upward movement/promotions within
