Pros

Be as busy as you want to be, they'll schedule you as many clients as you want and you have control over your hours

Cons

They lock you into a noncompete agreement that they will not let you out of and will sue you if they even think you're violating it They think they own patients They hire in bulk and there aren't enough referrals to truly keep you busy Many layers of bureaucracy and they're increasingly micromanaging their clinicians

Pros

Incredible place to work to build experience, receive supervision while supporting a diverse client population. Extremely flexible hours, opportunity to either work from home or in office with administrative staff. Truly caring, intentional, experienced regional leaders that are open to feedback and value their employees.

Cons

Working in mental health in a publicly held corporation has its conflicts of interest. No paid vacation time for FT employees which is counterintuitive to the work we do as trauma informed providers. No paid training. Profitability and bottom-line results for shareholders should not be reason to think of long term needs and burnout potential of providers.
