Pros

Seeing real progress in patients was rewarding, mostly thanks to the therapists' dedication, skill, and passion. Their hard work and commitment made a difference and was genuinely inspiring.

Cons

- Be extremely careful what you sign and accept—read every detail before agreeing - Employees feel trapped with low pay and poor benefits - Raises and recognition are nearly non-existent, even after years of service - Management shows little care for staff, prioritizing themselves over employees - Some senior employees create problems through gossip and blaming others - New employees are unfairly targeted for mistakes they didn't make - Attitudes and behavior from both management and certain staff make the environment hostile and demoralizing

Pros

Flexible hour, good if you are a student

Cons

Dont have health coverage but it's not really a con because it's a part-time position and they already stated this when you starting the job.
