Pros

Good benefits, paid CEU’s, flexible schedule

Cons

I was let go after 8 years of service, no explanations, always giving a 100% , never called in , working weekends. My only fault, I was making the top salary. They hired someone cheap 6 months prior to let me go and explained to me they were overstaffed. They laid me off over the teleconference call . Just a month prior to that I got an excellent review .

Symbria Response
3y
I'm sorry you had a difficult experience. Symbria has a well-documented performance improvement process, compliance program and reduction-in-force (RIF) process. When a client contract is lost or the client's census falls to the degree that they cannot support the existing therapy program, Symbria utilizes a thorough, documented RIF process that involves multiple levels of review and approval. The RIF process is always explained to employees. Unfortunately, in these situations, the need to reduce staff may come down to reviewing two strong performers. The evaluation and criteria is closely monitored and an individual's compensation is not considered in the criteria. Symbria never wants to downsize and the situations are always difficult. Thank you for your time and commitment to Symbria. We wish you the best going forward. - 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.
