Pros

The pay isn't terrible, the PTO is decent, and those you interact with higher in the chain always seem friendly.

Cons

The past few months of 2020 were exhausting and painful. Several complaints have been made, many employees have quit in a short period, and the company is severely understaffed. Everyone in the building is burnt out, and it just got worse and worse. I couldn't go one day without someone walking up to me with complaints and grievances, some being my own. It isn't just Covid, it's poor management and piling the work of five people on one person until they break down and quit.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I'm sorry your experience was so difficult. Without a doubt, the past 18 months have been terribly hard, especially for healthcare workers. The workforce shortage is a continuing challenge but we have added to our recruitment team and are working hard to fill vacancies as well as add new roles where business has grown. If you would like to talk to someone directly about your experience - and perhaps consider returning - please reach out to me through the Contact function. Thank you, Deb Bragg, Chief HR Officer

Pros

Pros? You get a paycheck.

Cons

Micromanaging from higher ups. Unrealistic expectations for productivity given the staffing, support, and patient skill level. Significant pressure on staff to clock out while working to save productivity. Treatment time to the bare minimum so patients who need more therapy don’t get more. Spreads staff as thin as possible then complains when they can’t meet expectations. And somehow convinced employees to lie on Glassdoor to write 5 star reviews to get their ratings up because I’ve never met a single employee for this company who even thinks this company is mildly good let alone worthy of five stars. Every five star review since January is suspicious to me.
