Pros

For Pct's, Lpn's and administrative assistants there are good promotional opportunities. Poor clinical tract opportunities for social workers. There are the advantages of a large company benefit package, but these are decreasing with each year.

Cons

Not treated with respect, clinical value of social workers not rewarded. Extra Shifts 3rd and nocturnal programs added without any additional compensation. Salary is taken as a license for high case loads. Highly stressful with many unneeded financial, insurance and clerical duties, prevent delivery of good social work pt. care

Pros

Depending on location and your clinic, leadership team is incredibly supportive, which keeps the day-to-day work environment relatively stress-free. Having the independence to manage your own scheduling also allows for an excellent work-life balance.

Cons

The initial onboarding and training programs are highly disorganized and lack substance. Additionally, standard pay raises are quite low and do not feel competitive relative to the workload and current market value.
