Pros

It's a job , you have money in your bank account every other Friday

Cons

Poor benefit, low salary, poor lifestyle balance. Minorities are underprivileged as the whole management and senior management is made up of your typical mid age average while male. They promise you that you will grow quicker as the company is growing , BS!!!! This company is so unethical ! They hire a bunch of young single college kids right out of school, they use them for 3-5 years and lay them off when their life start to get real such as having kids and ect ... Netsmart only thinks about Netsmart and their VPs. They like fresh kids out of school and lay them off when they find 'better' fresher kids out of school. The company has been laying off like crazy within the last several years. Don't waste your time at Netsmart unless you just need a job for the experience. VPs and executives come from Cerner and protect themselves while everyone else is at risk of loosing their job. Restructuration happens every few months with an unstable leadership. A sad story at Netsmart was this Architect who had been with the company for almost a decade , he was let go because he was costing the business 'too much money'. They replaced him few weeks later by a younger kid who took a lesser pay. You work work work work even on weekends and it's never enough, they always need more from you. I'm DONE !!!!!!!!

Pay is not great, but definitely a decent chance of getting good bumps if you put in the work. Benefits are just okay. Flexible Paid Time Off(Pro and Con)

Pros

The team I work with is dedicated and loyal to the company and takes an ownership mentality.

Cons

If you care, you’ll give up your nights, your weekends, your blood, sweat, tears, joy, you’ll miss family events, even health appointments, your house will fall apart, your relationships will suffer, and you might even get asked to shorten your time away. There is nobody in the positions of the right help, and far too many managers, and too many per diem who have other jobs that can’t give enough hours but hold per diem positions hostage. When you ask for help, it’s always answered with a “We are trying”. Yet it’s been years of asking and the ask still falls on deaf ears. The company is missing opportunities to grow a huge revenue stream because they won’t create structure and processes; and positions to manage those structures. There are so many missed opportunities here, in a field that really needs us. I don’t know how to make my voice louder. It’s just not heard. We are top heavy in management. We need certain tasks completed, and are not getting what we need, no matter how many meetings we have about it. In fact, I don’t have time for the meetings anymore. We didn’t even celebrate Nurse’s Week. Not a single person even mentioned it. They work you to within an ounce left of your sanity, and then there’s absolutely no recognition or cohesiveness or celebration of any achievmemts instead, it’s “We didn’t make our quota.”. It’s all hurry up and get your work done, but then slow down because you’re making mistakes. Pay is mediocre for this level of experience and expertise-non-management level positions elsewhere offer far more in salary. Plus all the money you’ll spend to try to get things done just to manage your life, like paying for grocery delivery because you’ll never see the inside of a grocery store again. It’s madness. Not a sustainable career.
