Pros

Nice office spaces, gets you on almost all insurance panels

Cons

Lured in by the beautiful office spaces pre- pandemic quickly shifted during pandemic. Hyper focus on unrealistically high productivity requirement, low pay, never offered company laptop for work from home, micromanaging time off, managers who offer personal advice not solicited by the employee, no opportunity for advancement, referrals high acuity, no admin support (you will book, deal with billing, market, etc). Major business model shift to treating therapists like factory workers with required unrealistic productivity hr minimums. It’s a churn and burn model. Do not work here if you want work life balance, good pay, and professionalism.

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.
