Pros

Conveniently located on Charles Street in Towson.

Cons

As a former employee, I feel compelled to share my experience, which was nothing short of a nightmare. The environment was toxic, and discrimination was not only tolerated but seemingly encouraged. The blatant prejudice against employees by certain individuals within the institution. The president is narcissistic. It was apparent that his primary concern was his own image and reputation rather than the well-being of staff. Communication from the top-down was virtually nonexistent, leaving employees feeling isolated and unsupported. When issues were raised, they were met with hostility, creating a culture of fear and silence. Some C-suite officers struggled to assert themselves as true leaders in the presence of the president, whose domineering demeanor overshadowed any semblance of teamwork. My decision to leave was not made lightly, but rather as a last resort after enduring intolerable conditions in a workplace that had devolved into a cesspool of toxicity and hostility. In summary, my time here was marred by discrimination and a complete lack of leadership. I would strongly advise anyone considering employment here to proceed with extreme caution.

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.
