Pros

Great staff, caring employees, teamwork, paid time off.

Cons

Almost every other part of working here. Pay is embarrassing, I make less money than those on food stamps. For such little pay, I have a workload that is incredibly cumbersome. Interviewed for several "step up" positions but was turned down. There are no opportunities to make more money here. Just run. Far, far away from Sheppard Pratt and any subsidiaries. I have been here for 3 years and continue to make less than the LEGAL minimum wage. Dr. Trivedi took a "pay cut" when announcing to staff that they would not be receiving their "merit based" pay raise. Not enough of a pay cut in my opinion. Throughout COVID-19 I have had to be PHYSICALLY present at my workplace, with minimal PPI and garbage pay. Sheppard Pratt needs to rethink what they're really doing. They actively allow the mental health of their employees can to suffer, at this "mental health" giant.

Pros

Good job starting out if interested in the mental health field

Cons

Current supervisor at the Elkridge location enables questionable ethical practices among social workers, such as deleting some parts of an discharge summary as to avoid compromising the hospital. she also is too focused on planning her future vacations instead of managing the constant bullying from certain colleagues and overall lack of support as an supervise. Only opportunities for growth is to supervise interns or do some of the supervisor’s tasks when she’s working at the center of eating disorders in towson. Also, some units are actually breaking OHCQ by allowing patients in the nurses station and barely doing groups. Current supervisor is clearly burnt out and devoid of empathy because the money from being manager of two different locations is worth it if it means there’s a lack of investment towards her supervises. As a result, supervision is poor because there’s no manager to refer to if there are any questions or issues in person.
